Trained in oceanographic meteorology, he worked on wave forecasting for the Allied invasion of Normandy and the invasion of Burma. After leading a convoy across the Ledo-Burma Road he worked on the plans for the invasion of Japan while based in the Philippines. This is a story of a scientist at war.
