Did the scientists working on the Apollo program which eventually put US men on the moon work in customary or metric units?

An old come back to those wanting materials in metric rather than customary units is that miles put men on the moon. Is this historically accurate? Did the Apollo scientists actually use customary units like the average American, or as scientists did they adopt metric units?

They used both..

They used customary for length and distance, but used metric for other non customary units. For example .. Electrical units, volts, ampere, and watts are metric units.
