He was supposed to appear at the POCI national convention back in 2001 but unfortunately died shortly beforehand. I was looking forward to hearing him talk. I did buy a copy of his autobiography, I think his daughter was the person selling them at the convention.

Thanks for the pics and story. I also read on
WW II. One book I read( I read Non fiction) is 'Tuxedo Park'. A man was an investor, he liked science. He had a lab at his home. He would invite young scientists in. Pay their way and any equipment they wanted. They helped develop radar for airplanes to hunt u boats among other inventions.
