Ronnie was right all along on STAR WARS!

My son was a part of this test at the Kauai site. One of the Engineers that built and launched the target missle -- sorry just a Dad puffing his chest out a little.

Of course he was, why do you think we're called "the right"!

You should be proud, he sounds like quite fellow.

I have been privileged to be at Barking Sands for two successful tests off Kauai myself. First time we went out in a launch along the Napali coast we got to view the Lake Erie fire her interceptor. Way cool.

You are deservedly proud.

44 YEARS AGO I was a part of the testing of our anti-missile system at White Sands Missile Range. Missiles would be fired into White Sands from Green River, Utah, and a Nike Zeus would be launched to intercept them. One of my jobs was analyzing close-up photos of the "bullet trying to hit another bullet" in order to calculate miss distance. Our ABM system has been under development a long, long time.
