My brother’s 8th grade classmate, Jon Shirley, when we were stationed in San Juan, Puerto Rico during the early 1950s, went on to graduate from MIT. His dad was a Navy officer stationed there.
After college he worked for Radio Shack for 25 years expanding its operation to 7,000 stores around the world.
Bill Gates then hired him to be president of Microsoft. (Jon is now 86 and retired)
We knew him as something of a nerd kid even 70+ years ago. Smart as a whip.
