Source Code
These source-code files are part of a reconstructed copy of Comanche 72/3 (AKA Manche72 revision 3),
the final, flown mission release of the Apollo Guidance Computer (AGC) Command Module (CM) software
for Apollo 13.
The starting point was the source code of Comanche 72 (itself previously reconstructed). Comanche 72 source code was then modified by incorporating changes known from contemporary documentation to have been made between revisions 72 and 72/3. The resulting code assembles to have identical memory-bank checksums as those specified in NASA drawing 2021153G; this gives reasonably high confidence that the changes that have been made are correct. In places where ambiguity exists, this ambiguity is discussed in "## Reconstruction:" comments. Since no contemporary listings of Comanche 72/3 are available as source material, all comments and labels are approximate. They have been taken from other AGC programs where possible, or, in some places, written from scratch to match what we believe would have been in the original listing. |

033786,000009: ## from a reconstructed copy of Comanche 072. It has been adapted
033787,000010: ## such that the resulting bugger words exactly match those

033789,000012: ## which gives relatively high confidence that the reconstruction
