The Author spent over 39 years with the United States Air Force in the USA, Asia, and Europe. He had some part in the development of most of the new weapons system in development between 1979 and 1989. Some of those systems are just now being delivered. He taught classes in weapons system research and development and logistics management as a guest lecturer at the Air Force Institute of Technology and various conference rooms around the USA. Over 3000 current and future managers attended his class on R&D scheduling. He served on many brain storming teams to come up with unique solutions to military problems from shooting down space objects to moving "dud" bombs off an active runway. He is now retired from both active duty and civil service. He is still active in writing, the local amateur radio club, towing the Shriner float in parades and going to almost weekly dances and generally enjoying himself.
