After leaving the British
Army I worked for a time in the 50's for the 'Ministry of Defence',
on Gov't security contracts, moving between different sections
for short periods and working mainly on either computer systems
(Rank Cintel, Imhoff, Muirehead), and development of Guided Missile
control systems for the Blue Streak and Bloodhound, the high
altitude research rockets, Blue Water and Skylark (at Elliott
Bros, Plessey, EMI Electronics and Fairy Aviation). Including
a few weeks working on ASDIC underwater detection equipment at
Graseby Istruments Ltd. |
