Nicholas J. Willis

Nicholas J. Willis is the nephew of Frances Elizabeth Willis (a Foreign Service notable) and knew her well. He graduated from Stanford University on a USN scholarship in 1956 and spent five years on active duty (two on a destroyer and three testing guided missiles.) He spent the rest of his career on military radars and their countermeasures, including five years at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency developing and testing stealth technology. He wrote books, book chapters and two award-winning papers about these radars. He wrote this book following his retirement in Carmel, California.
