My dad was a captain in USAF and one thing he mentioned to me about one medal that he got was by setting up an air force base in France that was specially geared to repair disabled planes and get them off the ground quickly.

After the war that he invented the Infrared telescope.  [That is the young man in that article in Life Magazine, Philip Rosenbloom]. After that when the USA government wanted to create infrared satellites to spy on the USSR so they called him and he went to work for TRW in creating those satellites. Called the DSP [Defense Support Program] satellites in the early 1970s. 

Later he worked on laser communication between satellites for SDI [Star Wars].

So I can safely say my parents were very loyal Americans.
