    ‘57 Class of 1957 Briefing Notes “Gentlemen of the Air-minded Brigade” CLASS HISTORY The Class of 1957 entered into the United States Naval Academy in 1953. Graduated 7 June 1957 Graduates 848 Midshipmen Non-Graduates 287 Midshipmen Back in the day . the days of no air conditioning, marching to classes and to mandatory church services, no bothersome choices to make academically (except for which dago to study for two years), blue cap covers all winter (so easy to keep neat), folded raingear capes, no booze inside and no liberty outside seven miles, sympathetic jimmylegs at the gates, our M-1 rifles all stowed in Dahlgren, slide rules, drag houses and the flying squadron, garters and detachable starched collars, no cell phones (no phones!), and tea fights at Carvel Hall, where many lifelong romances began. And the academics: A recitation/quiz and grade every day, every subject; grades to two decimal places posted every week, along with standing in each course. While we were here, Eddie Erdelatz took the Team Named Desire to the Sugar Bowl and there beat Ole Miss on national TV. Hurricane Hazel sank the yacht Vamarie and tore the Reina Mercedes from her moorings. Home football games were in Thompson Stadium, and we were the first to graduate in the new Halsey Field House. Upon graduating, 848 strong (down from 1200 entering), we entered a Cold War environment, with Korea over and nuclear holocaust looming; with virtually all ships and submarines driven by diesel, diesel/battery or oil-fired steam turbines – and almost a quarter of our Class - 206 - commissioned in the Air Force.

    Sue Nelson Hello, I'm Sue Nelson and this is a rather special edition of the Create the Future podcast because my guests are the winners of the 2019 Queen Elizabeth Prize for Engineering, awarded for the development of the Global Positioning System – GPS. It's the first global satellite radio navigation system, a huge engineering infrastructure, and if you've got a smart phone it gives you both your exact location, and the precise time within billions of a second. It's used for everything from navigation and banking to precision farming and science. As you might imagine, there are several crucial components to GPS: it uses a constellation of orbiting satellites, ground stations, a receiving device, and an atomic clock. I'm delighted to be joined by three of the engineering pioneers who spearheaded the advances that culminated in an invention that revolutionized the world and benefited humanity. They are Bradford Parkinson, Dick Schwartz, and Hugo Fruehauf. First of all, congratulations to you all. The Queen Elizabeth Prize is as a considerable accolade. Is it special winning a prize like this? Brad Parkinson Well I would say it is without a doubt a prize that is unexcelled by anything else, particularly for engineers. We don't win Nobel’s because, generally, we make stuff that works. That's supposed to be a joke but, nonetheless, I am deeply, deeply honoured. The ceremony was impressive, and the whole reception was obviously well rehearsed. It gave me a great feeling about what a team of engineers have produced. Sue Nelson Did you ever think, Dick, that you would be at Buckingham Palace? Dick Schwartz No, I never thought I'd visit Buckingham Palace.
