R&D Electronics stuff till I retired about 15 yrs ago.
Edit: I see everybody has gone into more detail (except Ian).
Navy missile tech just missed Cuba crisis, then missed Nam. 4 yrs in school, estimating commercial electrical projects to pay the bills. Then design missile guidance radar and IR. Avionic surveillance radio for several AFs. Kinda started the walk-thru metal detector bruhaha, couple Olympics. Bunch of telecom and medical stuff. Basically lots of fun.
Cousin says I'm very very distantly related to the guy who invented BW & Color TV, on Mom's side. Interesting guy.
