After earning degrees from the University of Michigan in English and Engineering, Jay Carp joined General Telephone and Electronics (GTE) where he worked for over thirty years in military electronics. His career took him to Thule, Greenland, to work on the Ballistic Missile Early Warning System. He was also part of the team to develop a radar system for use in Viet Nam to locate enemy mortar and artillery shells. For twenty years, Mr. Carp worked entirely on Inter Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) systems. When the Minuteman missiles were first deployed at the Grand Forks Air Force Base in North Dakota, he was there working directly with the Strategic Air Command (SAC). His experiences gave him an understanding of the Air Force operational problems over and above any technical consideration and full familiarity with the Minuteman, MX, Peacemaker and Rail Garrison missile systems. During the years Mr. Carp worked on ICBM's, he was a field engineer, test supervisor, troubleshooter, project engineer and project manager. His last field assignment prior to retirement was as GTE Site Manager at Vandenberg Air Force Base in California. The subject of our country’s defense systems is familiar to and of interest to all concerned with today’s worldwide volatile climate. Cold War Confessions: Inside Our Classified Defense Programs gives an inside look at both our successful and not so successful classified weapon systems which were built to protect against nuclear attack. Jay Carp currently resides in Milan, Michigan. We look forward to the opportunity to speak with you about an interview with Jay and would be happy to send a copy of Cold War Confessions for your review. Once we have a confirmed interview we will supply you with several complimentary copies of Cold War Confessions for your use. Please feel free to contact me with any additional questions.
