Retired Army Colonel Robert Wallace enlisted in 1948 and was sent to work at General MacArthur’s headquarters in Occupied Japan, where he personally printed the plans for the Invasion of Inchon. He later learned about computers at DODCI, worked at the Pentagon, and became the director of the Combat Service Support System in Fort Hood, Texas. He stressed the importance of accepting computers to General Shoemaker and to college students as computers were “where the world is going.”
