Author	Topic: Researching NASA employee Paul Sturtevant
Joel Katzowitz Member Posts: 808 From: Marietta GA USA Registered: Dec 1999	posted 12-21-2014 06:23 PM I've been attempting to do some research on NASA employee Paul M. Sturtevant, but have had little luck. He worked on Project Mercury followed by a stint as a Gemini Program Office special assistant. In 1971 he was presented with a 30 year service award. Despite all of that, I can't even find a NASA bio on him although I found several references to him in various publications. If anyone can help me with images or information I would appreciate it, thanks.

Here he was presented with the NASA 30-year pin and parchment in 1971 implying that he had been with the agency since... 1941. Could only surmise that he was with NACA or the military back in the day?

I have his MCC viewing room badge for the ASTP mission. The badge came courtesy of a generous cS member. I also got some great photos from another generous member. Thanks all.
