Inheritance
A Military Career with Nuclear Missiles, Rockets, and Fighter Jets 1960-1997
Normalerweise in 3-5 Werktagen gedruckt
Retired Senior Master Sergeant Robert Charles Feyl
can boast of an exciting career in the Air Force that was like no other. Spanning the last three decades of the Cold War, there was a constant thread through all those years – aiding the United States in helping the Germans, and the rest of Europe, remain safe in the event of an attack from the Soviet Union. He was a nuclear missile technician while stationed in Germany - a hard rocket fuel specialist at the High Speed Test Track in New Mexica where he worked on projects led by the famous Werner Von Braun - and finally a crew chief with the New York Air National Guard that trained with and supported the German Air Force.
The rockets that Bob sent down the High Speed Test Track also helped to create new technologies that kept our troops alive during the Vietnam conflict, put the first man on the moon, and kept the Space Shuttle from burning up while leaving and reentering earth's orbit.
As if this wasn’t enough, Bob continued supporting the military with work at the Pentagon documenting Aircraft Battle Damage Repair Kits and being a part of the first National Guard unit to be deployed to the Persian Gulf for Operation Desert Storm.
This book is his story, in his words.
