Week's Speaker: Frank Gatto and his classification talk |
Frank Gatto has had a very full and interesting life,
to say the least. He graduated from Penn State with a degree in secondary
education, after which he made a career in the Air Force. He spent thirty
years in the Air Force, beginning as an airlifter and navigator, and
he spent about seven thousand hours flying airplanes; while he never
flew Air Force One, he has flown a Vice President, as well as former
President Ford and also Rockefeller. He had a variety of other experiences,
including some medivac airlifts for soldiers in Vietnam. Ultimately
he moved back to Dover, then on to New Hampshire. In 1976 he started
his second career in the services in Jakota, Japan, where he served
as the Controller & Chief of Peacetime Aerial Reconnoissance (in
the Far East, which involved the Navy, Army and Air Force). In 1979
he returned to the States, to the Pentagon, where he worked closely
with budgets.
At some time during his service in the Air Force, Frank obtained a Master's
Degree in Business Management, and he continues to use his teaching
and business skills in other work where he helps people learn to teach
and train effectively. He has been officially retired from the forces
for 15 years.
Frank came to State College in 1991 as a single parent of a fifth grader,
and eventually married his current wife and inherited two girls. He
also has two grandchildren. While his previous hobbies had included
fishing and running, he takes pleasure now in reading, computers, and
travelliing.
