I had attempted...
...in Dec, 4 to get into the Navy flight training program and had failed the eye test, so I knew that was out for me. After a couple weeks, I and a few remaining meteorologist training soldiers were told our destination was a 5 month training school at Yale University where we would learn to be qualified communication officers, ie., we would learn about the radio communication equipment used by the air force...later I learned that I was to take another training course in Georgia. I learned much about the Instrument Landing System used by the Air Force to guide aircraft into landing in poor visibility. ILS is stiil in use today.
