Experience

• 

  Aerial Targets Program Office, PMA-208 with PEO(CU)

  Jan 1992 - Jan 1995

  Full Scale and VANDAL DPM, Targets Allocation Officer, and OPNAV/Requirements Liaison

  A great first acquisition tour for a fleet guy, the program office covered Research and Development for more advanced target systems through sustainment for legacy programs and everything in between. The Full Scales included the QF-86s and QF-4Ns, several of which I had fleet time in and those old birds continued to serve until their dying days. The VANDAL program reworked old Talos missiles as a supersonic sea skimmer to support AEGIS testing, and I took this program through the entire milestone process. Show less
