[AT] OT Draft Exemption Exam

[bradloomis at charter.net]

As was my father. 1 class short of dual engineering degrees in 4 years at NC State, civil and mechanical. He spent the war developing sound tracking torpedoes for the Navy, spending time at sea.  As an engineer, not in uniform. He would have been in his 30s. Sadly polio killed him four months before I was born in 52.

My dad was called up for WII, but didn’t serve. His boss made an argument that he was un-replaceable at his job and they needed him above everybody else. He was deferred from serving.
