Carl M. Robinson's New Book "Finding the Clouds and a Life" is a Candid Reflection on the Author's Life, Career, and Family from his High School Years to the Present.
Recent release "Finding the Clouds and a Life" from Page Publishing author Carl M.

RENO, Nev., June 03, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Carl M. Robinson, a married father of five grown children, US Air Force veteran who received a citation for his service in the Korean conflict, and member of Saint Catherine's Episcopal Church currently residing in Nevada, has completed his book "Finding the Clouds and a Life": an autobiography recounting many impressive and nostalgic details of a well-lived life.
The author recalls, "The schedule for my sampling flight was the last mission for Operation Castle. The device is twenty-three miles across the atoll from where our office is located. The device is sitting on a float of some sort over where an island was blown away. On every flight I made to get flying time, I would fly over the area to see how the construction was coming along. I was looking forward to seeing what kind of damage it would make in relation to size, heat, sound, and height. Another thing I would practice at the end of every flight was a GCA landing.
The day finally came for the explosion, but nobody saw anything. A mammoth storm had moved in, and there was a need to help the sampler airplanes find the cloud. A B-36 with a good navigator could figure where the cloud is located and direct the sampler pilots to the cloud. After a few tries of directing the F-84s to where the cloud was thought to be, there was a delay. The sampler aircraft were getting low on fuel, and finally, the navigator gave a heading that worked, eight roentgens. Lieutenant Berger and I, still in formation, got information that the ceiling was one hundred feet and visibility was a quarter mile at the airfield. We requested a GCA, which should be fun."
