Biography
“[I] joined LOGICON, INC after AF retirement doing software development work. Initially involved with fighter-related activity (like JTIDS). This changed over to bomber projects, eg., B-52, and B-1 modernization.
In 1986, two years before the AF acknowledged its existence, started working on the B-2. This lasted for seven years until retiring in 1993 to coastal NC.”
