During WWII there were a very, very many places for a good woman. Bletchley Park was mostly women. Lots of radio operators were women. Firing long range guns in those days used ten place log tables, maybe twenty, I forget. Rotation of the Earth was a real factor, depended on latitude and direction of fire, natch.

Nowadays the Air Force will take a good person with a math degree in a second. Gobs of operational analysis going on. War is going into space right quick. Got to think in terms of delta V and orbit change. Going to get rough. ICBM interception, separating spoofers from decoys from warheads.

Never, ever, enough good people. A "ready, willing, and able" is always welcome.

hehehe... I checked after 9-11, they don't want me now.... when I was of an age, I was raising kids. Now the kids are grown and I'd be perfect for one of those mathmatically related jobs but ~sigh~ ya know, they think I'm too old!
