Apollo 1, in which the three astronauts died, was crewed by Command Pilot Virgil I. "Gus" Grissom, Senior Pilot Ed White and Pilot Roger B. Chaffee.
The captain of mission control for Apollo 13 was Commander James. A. Lovell.
During Apollo, he was the Captain of the Apollo 17 mission. He was also the last human to step on the moon in nearly four decades.
James A. Lovell, Jr.
Apollo Bay, Victoria, Australia was named by Captain Luitit in 1845 when he sheltered his vessel, the Apollo, there from a storm.
Apollo 1 was launched on February 21, 1967
There was no Apollo 1 , only three astronauts got burnt to death, but I do not think it was a numbered as Apollo 1.
Apollo 1 was not an actual program, it was a scheduled mission as part of the Apollo Program. Apollo 1 had a scheduled launch date of February 21, 1967.
Jim Lovell

Here also there was no Apollo 1 space mission.
The captain of Apollo 13 was James A. Lovell Jr. He was part of the crew that successfully aborted the mission after an oxygen tank explosion and safely returned to Earth.
There were a total of 17 Apollo missions, numbered from Apollo 1 to Apollo 17.
