John burnett
Class of 1953
Army, 3 Years
Cryptographer at the White House. Worked under the Eisenhouser adm.traveled with President.When his tour of duty was about to end, he was offered a job at the Pentagon if he would re- enlist but turned it down because we had 2 small children & we did not want to move to D.C.. He passed away in 2008 just as his 50 yrs. of silence ended. He had to wait that long before he could talk much about some things he did while there. RIP, Sgt.Burnett
