    Tape Transcription Dr. Richard Garwin Drell Lecture U.S. NUCLEAR WEAPONS AND NUCLEAR EXPLOSION TESTING Tuesday, March 9, 2004 [With “[SLIDE x]” references to accompany file USNW_Slides.pdf] CHAIR: [Welcome on behalf of the Center for International Security and Cooperation within the Stanford Institute for International Studies.] My name is Christopher Chyba, and with Scott Sagan I co-direct CISAC, the Center for International Security and Cooperation. The Drell Lecture was established by Bud and Cecily Wheelon who are with us here this evening, in 1994, and then named in honor of Professor Sidney Drell upon his retirement at Stanford. Bud Wheelon has had a remarkable career as Deputy Director of the CIA and been CEO of Hughes Aircraft, and he and Sid Drell both played a remarkable role in intelligence gathering and the resulting possibilities for arms control during the Cold War. You can read about those roles in Philip Taubman's book Secret Empire. Sidney Drell was also here at Stanford, one of the founding co-directors of CISAC as well as Deputy Director of the Stanford Linear Accelerator facility. We could hardly have a better speaker to be this year's Drell Lecture than tonight's speaker Dr. Richard Garwin. Dr. Garwin received his Ph.D. in Physics from the University of Chicago in 1949. He is now Philip D. Reed Senior Fellow for Science and Technology at the Council on Foreign Relations and also IBM Fellow Emeritus as well as previous Director of the IBM Thomas J. Watson Research Center. He was a member of the President's Science Advisory Committee and is currently a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Engineering as well as the Council on Foreign Relations.

  • Chronology American Aerospace Events
    CHRONOLOGY AMERICAN AEROSPACE EVENTS HAROLD “PHIL” MYERS CHIEF HISTORIAN AIR FORCE INTELLIGENCE, SURVEILLANCE, AND RECONNAISSANCE AGENCY LACKLAND AFB, TEXAS 23 February 2009 EVOLUTION OF A CHRONOLOGY In 1981, as an Air Force enlisted historian, I worked for the Research Division of the Air Force Historical Research Agency (then Albert F. Simpson Historical Center) at Maxwell AFB, Al. For the next two years, I answered inquiries and conducted the Historian’s Development Course. While there I discovered a real “nugget,” A Chronology of American Aerospace Events from 1903-1974, gathering dust on an obscure shelf. I knew the draft document would be a handy reference for all enlisted field historians. In 1983, I took a copy of this chronology with me on my next assignment with the 39th Tactical Group in Turkey. The chronology proved to be an invaluable source in promoting Air Force history. It allowed me to prepare “Today in Aerospace History” slides for weekly staff meetings and write a weekly “Aerospace Highlights” column for the base newspaper. But at that time, the chronology was arranged by year and date, and it took considerable time to find events by specific dates. In 1985, I moved to the Ballistic Missile Office at Norton AFB, California, to write about the Peacekeeper and Small ICBM programs. The introduction of computers allowed me to convert the original chronology into a “By Date” product. I knew that the chronology was not an all inclusive listing, so I began to integrate events from other works—like the Development of Strategic Air Command, 1946-1986, The SAC Missile Chronology, and The Military Airlift Command Historical Handbook, 1941-1986—into an electronic product.
