Anyone know
19 April 2006 11:00Of some place where there's a US military base near a university? Preferably with a decent maths department (yes, I know Americans call it math *g*). Oh, and both must have been around in the early 1970s. And located actually in the US
I want John Sheppard's father to have been posted there, in case anyone was wondering. I don't think we know canonically whether John's father was in the military at all, but for story purposes I've decided to make him a military officer. I'm undecided whether he should be air force or army (although not navy) so either an air force or army base works.
Many thanks in hope. *g*
ETA: Location of the base must be in the US for plot purposes

It also housed the Air Force Research Lab and the MIT Lincoln Laboratory. A lot of the original human-computer interaction work was done at Lincoln.
If you choose it, I can help you with local details.
