It was the Cold War from 1978 to 1994, no combat. It was the time for space, test flying and Top Gun. I was blessed to have a lot of fun in the Air Force. Here's my top 10:
• Designed, built, tested and launched DSP missile warning satellites, the most complex satellite ever built by the DoD with over 40 sensors to detect rocket launches and nuclear weapon detonations underground, above ground and in space.
• Managed a project to launch and operate the Mid-Course Space Experiment, the FIRST true hyperspectral (1,400 colors) satellite for the DoD. Led build of mission control and sensor processing software, arranged for Russian ICBM with full suite of targets and decoys to launch for us. (We could tell if they were baby milk factories or chemical plants by looking at the exhaust from space.)
• Operations Director for the DC-X the FIRST reusable rocket for US (test data provided in 2002 to Space X and Blue Origin)
