Autor

Lee Yates spent over 15 years in the Navy, where he reached the level of Senior Chief Petty Officer (E8). There he taught the Polaris/Poseidon nuclear missile electronics for 8 1/2 years. Because of his extensive military schooling, after he left the Navy IBM hired him as an engineer-despite not having a college degree. At IBM Lee was responsible for some of the logic design for the Navy's SH-60B Seahawk helicopter avionics. He also designed the first automation of the logistics support analysis records (LSAR). Lee has five wonderful children and has been happily married to the love of his life for 52 years. He enjoys traveling and dabbling in learning foreign languages.
