Les is a man with many skills and diversified background. He served as an officer in the United States Air Force during the Vietnam and COLD wars. His exceptional service was rewarded by placing him on a fast track for early promotion and with two meritorious service medals. The first meritorious service medal was awarded for imploding four giant billboard antennas in the Aleutian Islands as opposed to disassembling them nut by nut and bolt by bolt. This saved taxpayers $8 million ($30 billion in today’s dollars). The second meritorious service medal was awarded for identifying a bad computer chip in our nuclear early warning system; which resulted in large screen TV’s in strategic command post cities to light up like a Christmas tree, falsely displaying a massive all out nuclear assault by the Soviet Union on major cities and military installations in the United States. In doing so, mutual mass destruction nuclear war was avoided.
