From what I've read, there were rather a lot of Raytheon employees on the passenger lists.
I've often speculated about this.
I believe a lot of the people to die on the planes, civilian contractor and military personnel that is, were in positions that would be required for
9/11 to be carried out the way some believe it may have been.
Some of the positions are..
William E. Caswell – 54, was a third-generation physicist whose work at the Navy was so classified that his family knew very little about what he
did each day.
John D. Yamnicky Sr. – 71, of Waldorf, Md., was a retired naval aviator, but worked as a defense contractor for Veridian Corp. Involved in many
black box operations.
Wilson Flagg – 62, of Millwood, Virginia. Pentagon consultant, and retired Navy Admiral and pilot with American Airlines before his retirement.
Stanley Hall – 68, of Rancho Palos Verdes, California. Director of program management with Raytheon Electronics Warfare, helped develop and build
anti-radar technology. “Our dean of electronic warfare,” said a colleague at Raytheon.
Bryan Jack – 48, of Alexandria, Virginia. Head of programming and fiscal economics in the Office of the Secretary of Defense, where he was a top
budget analyst. He had worked at the Pentagon for 23 years. Colleagues say Jack, 48, was a brilliant mathematician and he was headed to California
to give a lecture at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey. His wife is a high-ranking member of the military.
Keller, Chandler – 30, was a lead Propulsion Engineer and a Project Manager with Boeing Satellite Systems.
Dong Lee – 48, of Leesburg, Virginia, was an engineer with Boeing.
Ruben Ornedo – 39, of Los Angeles, was a propulsion engineer with Boeing. Born in the Philippines, he graduated from University of California, Los
Angeles.
Robert Penninger – 63, of Poway, California, was an electrical engineer with defense contractor BAE Systems since 1990.
Robert R. Ploger III – 59, and his wife, Zandra Cooper, of Annandale, Virginia. He was a Navy commander, and a manager in the systems and software
architecture department with Lockheed Martin Corp.
John Sammartino – 37, an engineer at XonTech Inc. in Rosslyn, he boarded American Airlines Flight 77 to attend a conference in Los Angeles. Out of
college, Sammartino was hired as an engineer at the Naval Research Lab; he had worked 11 years at XonTech, a research and development firm involved in
defense issues.
Leonard Taylor – of Reston, Va. was a technical manager at XonTech Inc., a research and development firm specializing in sensor technologies for
defense and industry.
Vicki Yancey – a former naval electronics technician. She worked for Vredenburg, a Washington-based defense contractor. She was bound for a
business conference in Reno.
In 1991, she wrote a letter to The Washington Post bringing attention to the demise of the one-income family. It led to her making an appearance
before the Senate Finance Committee, where she testified over the struggles of middle-class families; mainstream media followed up on her story.
Charles Burlingame – A 1971 graduate of the U.S. Naval Academy, Charles F. Burlingame III was captain of American Airlines Flight 77.
Mark Burlingame said his brother was in the Navy Reserve and had worked in the same area of the Pentagon where the airliner crashed. When he was in
the Navy, he developed anti-terror strategies, and helped draft the Pentagon’s emergency response plan in case it was ever hit by a airliner.
Also, the Pentagon section that was hit housed not only the office with the budget analysts (not sure what the official title or offices would be
called) but the Office of Naval Intelligence. If wargames were ongoing rather real or a part of the 9/11 event they surely would have been involved in
it.
Interesting points to ponder.
