As several folks are wondering what I did at Tracor Aviation, Fairview Avenue, Santa Barbara, California, between August 1988 and March 1989, I feel obliged to state for the record:

Tracor Aviation (which is now defunct in Santa Barbara, CA, having been bought out by a corporation in a similar field), was part of Tracor, Inc., of Austin, Texas. Tracor, Inc., which was or is, itself, headed by Bobby Ray Inman--retired Naval Admiral and briefly nominee of the Secretary of Defense in the first Clinton administration). Tracor, Inc. is widely-known to house a multitude of current or "former" U.S. Intelligence officers.

Upon moving back to Santa Barbara in May 1988 at the age of 23, after four (4) years in the oppressive heat of Scottsdale, Arizona, I left Arizona and began writing my political autobiography, Hell Bottled Up: Chronicles of a Late Propaganda Minister--surrounding my political activities while working for former Congressman John B. Conlan (R-AZ), then-Governor Evan Mecham (R-AZ) and the late Lt. General Daniel O. Graham--architect of Reagan's "Strategic Defense Initiative," the missile-defense shield wrongly-dubbed by "mainstream Media" as "Star Wars." While in Santa Barbara, I was "given the opportunity" to work at Tracor Aviation. There has always been tension, conflict and distrust between the Defense Intelligence Agency and the Central Intelligence Agency. My "job" at Tracor Aviation was technically/officially as a "warehouse clerk"--logging in and checking out parts for various airline refurbishing projects. In reality, I was working as a spy for the late Dan Graham, to observe, monitor and report the goings-on at Tracor Aviation of the "S-2 project."

"S-2" was being designed and retrofitted at Tracor Aviation, Santa Barbara, CA; "S-2" was the code-name of an ultra-low altitude, subsonic and radar-aviodant "E-Lint" (electronics intelligence) craft, being built for the Taiwanese government to monitor electronic communications of communist China. "S-2" was desperately behind schedule and the Taiwanese government was pissed off at the delays. It was widely thought by General Graham and others that intentional sabotage was occurring on the "S-2 project," and my function was to observe and monitor personnel at Tracor Aviation, report back to certain Intel officials, and to "keep an eye" on the CIA employees who occupied the management of Tracor Aviation.

None of this (or, only the bare-bones of this story) has ever been divulged by this writer, and nobody at Tracor Aviation had the slightest clue what my real functions were at that establishment; to them, I was just a low-level employee working in the stockroom and filing daily reports on their mainframe computer as to Quality Assurance of parts and equipment.

What I found was, that sabotage was indeed occurring. I cannot and will not say by whom. "S-2" was, indeed, way behind schedule, and several of the mechanics in charge of or employed in the retrofitting and design work of this aircraft had criminal records; the serious schedule delays were not by accident--they were by total design. Again, I will not say by whom.

"S-2" was eventually pulled from Tracor Aviation and handed over to Grumman Aerospace; the aircraft, according to my information, was never built, and the project was pulled from Grumman, and the Taiwanese government either went elsewhere to proceed on the completion of "S-2" or scrapped the project altogether. I do not have sufficient information on the plight of "S-2" to report on its ultimate fate.

Upon "S-2" being pulled from Tracor, my job ended and I was "laid off" (not fired; "laid off"). I qualified for unemployment insurance, but never filed for it.

This is the story of what I did at age 23, from between August 1988 and March 1989.

Sincerely,
