 I
went to work for the Glenn L. Martin Company, Middle
River, Maryland on 28 May 1951. First in Quality Control
and about a year and a half later, I transferred into
the Engineering Department. During my stay in Maryland
I worked on passenger aircraft, military aircraft, guided
missiles, and a number of space programs. While in Maryland,
and on the side, I taught math, drafting, and engineering
in the Mathematics and Engineering Department of Hartford
County College where I, subsequently, became acting
Department Head. In February of 1967, I transferred
to the Orlando, Florida Division of The Martin Marietta
Corporation.
At
the Orlando Division I worked in Advanced Programs for
Air-to-Ground missiles, and Mono-Rail Systems - including
production and delivery of the mono-rail system for
Disney World. During this period I attended Rollins
College and received my Master's Degree in Management
Science in May of 1975. In addition, I taught various
business, real estate, and math courses at Southern
College and at Rollins College.
In
December, 1976 I went to work at Kennedy Space Center
on The Space Shuttle program until I retired 1 January,
1994. During this period I conducted pre-launch preparations
and launch operations as the Lead Main Propulsion Systems
Engineer for the New Orleans Division of The Martin
Marietta Corporation ( now the Lockheed Martin Corporation
). This included a three year 'tdy' stint to Vandenburg
AFB, CA for the Space Shuttle Program and a one year
'tdy' stint to NASA's Michoud facility in New Orleans
working on the External Tank Program.
