Veteran And Fraternal Clubs At Bay

About the Book

A Novel about Veteran and Non Profit Clubs and the people who volunteer as Officers to manage the day to day activities. The inner workings and actions of the Moose, Eagles, American Legion, Veterans of Foreign Wars and the Knights of Columbus are considered. Details are evolved as the feelings, work and endeavors of several volunteers progress through the chairs of our clubs along with romances and sex at the bar. For every good deed there are evil individuals who succeed in placing a volunteer in jail. These evil men are aided by law enforcement and state officials who will not allow a lie detector test proving innocence. The City or County Government continue to tax the clubs and impose restrictions which will ultimately bankrupt them. Evil deeds are helped by inept Attorneys, Judges and fellow members who do the work of the evil ones. They do not do their own work.

About the Author

The author Thomas Moore graduated from Boston College with a BS Physics Degree. He had over thirty-five years of technical, staff, program management and supervisory experience. This was equally divided between private industry and government. He was a Senior Member of the Institute of Electronic and Electrical Engineers (IEEE), a member of the Institute of Navigation (ION) and member of the Executive Committee of the Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services (RTCM). He published in Proceedings and presented over thirty-five papers at conferences throughout the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom.

Selected publications included Ultra High Frequency Measurement by an AM Process, The Application of Fourier Analysis Methods To Eddy Current Impedance Techniques, AN/SPS-43 Search Radar Operation in Countermeasures, Affects of mutual coupling on Array Alignment and Radar and Transponder modes for ship radar.

Additional papers: "Accuracy limitations of radar with respect to ship collision avoidance"
"Navigation and communication plans for ships of the NOAA Fleet"
"NOAA Fleet Communications Manual"
"Accuracy limitations of multilateration radiolocation systems"
"Radiolocation range nulls and antenna separation"

His years of experience included radar/transponder, antenna, communications, computer System engineering, programming, systems analysis and program management. Particular emphasis was on fleet electronics, navigation, guidance, collision avoidance and communication systems. These systems include radar/missile guidance and intercept, high resolution and electronically phased arrays, search and track radar, ship radar/missile weapon systems, electronic countermeasures, remotely piloted vehicles and electromagnetic compatibility. Four patents were granted for a Monopulse Moving Target Indicator, an AM Modulator method to measure ultra high frequency phase difference, a Fourier Analysis technique to measure Eddy Current Impedance and an automatic target acquisition and lockon for the APQ-72 Radar.
