Apollo 16
The claims the writer was given for Apollo 16, in the order they were given.
1
An anonymous source claiming to regularly visit NASA Headquarters gave Richard C. Hoagland an Apollo 16 lunar photographic print shortly before the 1995 National Space Science Data Center trip.
“Shortly before the trip to NSSDC, Hoagland had been given (by a “source”) a remarkable Apollo 16 lunar photographic print.”

During the 1995 Goddard visit, Richard C. Hoagland's team obtained several reels of 5-inch Apollo 16 panoramic camera negatives, described as the highest-resolution Apollo photographs then available.
“as well as (surprisingly) several *reels* of 5-inch Apollo 16 *panoramic* camera negatives (the highest-resolution Apollo photographs currently available), comprising literally thousands of superb high-resolution negatives”

Apollo 16 landed on the Moon on 1972-04-20, Adolf Hitler's birthday.
“The second time was with Apollo 16, in 1972... Once again—on Hitler's date of birth.”

The Apollo 16 Lunar Module had a problem with its Service Propulsion System engine just before the planned deorbit burn, delaying the intended landing time for several hours until the date changed to April 20th, at which point the problem cleared and the astronauts were given the go-ahead to land.
“the Lunar Module on Apollo 16 had "a problem" with it's critical SPS engine just before the planned "deorbit burn" ... which delayed the intending landing time for several nail-biting hours, while NASA trouble-shot various engineering possibilities from Earth. This process dragged on and on … until the date of "April 20th" clicked over on the clock. Then, suddenly, the "problem" cleared itself—and the astronauts were given the go-ahead to land on "the next rev"”

The Apollo 16 Lunar Module was named Orion.
“Not only that, but that particular Lunar Module had a very interesting name: Orion.”

6
The Orion Lunar Module used on Apollo 16 was the only Lunar Module in the entire Apollo programme that was not deliberately crashed back onto the Moon after the astronauts departed and returned safely to the Command Module.
“Orion was also the only Lunar Module in the entire Apollo Program which was *not* deliberately crashed back onto the Moon after the astronauts had left the Moon, returned to the Command Module, and were safely on their way home”

The Apollo 16 landing site is located in the lunar highlands near the crater Descartes.
“the skies above the Apollo 16 landing site—in the lunar highlands near a major lunar crater called "Descartes"”

The Apollo 16 lunar module named Orion landed on the Moon on 1972-04-20, Adolf Hitler's birthday.

The Apollo 16 Lunar Module was openly named "Orion," which Richard C. Hoagland considers an obvious reference to Osiris.
“The Apollo 16 LEM had been openly named “Orion,” an obvious reference to Osiris.”

Similar rectilinear formations were seen in the lunar highlands, halfway between the Apollo 15 and Apollo 17 sites, by Apollo 16 astronauts John Young and Charles Duke.
“as well as in "the highlands of the Moon," half way between the 15 and 17 sites, by the Apollo 16 astronauts, John Young and Charlie Duke”

Richard C. Hoagland considers an example of geologic layering visible in an Apollo 16 photograph, similar to the Apollo 17 landing site, to bear a remarkable resemblance to heavily-eroded, artificial honeycomb construction.

On Apollo 15, 16, and 17, the Sequential Color Camera received a gamma correction capability, and transmissions on those missions were run through a bandwidth-limiting low-pass filter that reduced image quality.
“However, the Sequential Color Camera only received a gamma correction capability on the last three missions (Apollo 15, 16, and 17) and all of the transmissions were run through a bandwidth limiting “low-pass” filter which dramatically reduced the image quality.”

Harrison Schmitt did not use the data card book to the extent he believes it was used on Apollo 15 and possibly on Apollo 16.
“I did not use the data card book to the extent that I know it was used on 15 and maybe on 16.”

On Apollo 17, the onset of a loose-stool problem was delayed until about the 11th or 12th day, unlike on Apollo 16.
“I think it's important to try to understand why Apollo 17 was different than 16, and at least in the delay of a problem with loose stools until about the 11th or 12th day.”

Harrison Schmitt's personal opinion, based on limited in-flight observation and consideration of electrolyte intake levels, was that the reduced electrolyte quantity compared to Apollo 16 meant electrolyte saturation was not reached until the 11th or 12th day for the Command Module Pilot and Lunar Module Pilot on Apollo 17.
“And my personal opinion at this point, based on very little information other than observation in flight and thinking about levels of electrolyte intake, is that with the electrolyte quantity down from that imposed on Apollo 16 that we did not reach an electrolyte saturation level until the 11th or 12th day, in terms of the CMP and the LMP”
