Coming from a strong military family, Tom entered the Air Force just after the Vietnam War ended. Now, the US military could concentrate all it's attention on it's biggest threat, the Soviet Union. Tom's first assignment was in northern Maine, one of the last lines of defense during the Cold War. He then was sent to various other bases throughout the US, where he tested air launch nuclear missiles and spent time as an instructor. After 20 years in the USAF, he retired but continued to work as a contractor, training new crew members in B-52 operations. He has been associated with the B-52 for nearly half a century.
