So I wonder which of these players is W. C McCorkle? Is he a full fledged " Caroliner" or just one who answered an inspiration. ( whats the difference of those I wonder, how many steps to being a Caroliner might there be before one becomes fully concious of what is happening? ) besides the impressive title of "Director of U.S. Army Aviation and Missile Command" who was this W.C. McCorkle? Google time I guess.
Pretty long title. Did his power match its length? James
James I think he was bulldozing a trail to something, funny how typing Townsend Brown into DTIC got one hit. Which led to his name. which leads to this

"The U.S. Army is developing an electromagnetic gun (EMG) for battlefield applications.
During the past few years, on a recurring basis, Dr. John Lyons (former ARL Director)
and Dr. W. C. McCorkle (Director of U. S. Army Aviation and Missile Command) have
requested that I look at some of the physics of the EMG. In the most recent request, I was
asked to look at stresses in a rotating cylinder. For the case of an elastic cylinder, this is
a classic problem that is solved in many texts on linear elasticity [1,2,3,4,5,6]. However,
when these derivations are examined closely, one finds certain shortcomings [7]. Therefore,
I spent some time looking at the problem of stresses in elastic rotating cylinders. That work"
Bibliography read like something out of Nick Cook. "Its a Ph ing time machine.

May 61 The Directional Control Automet (DCAM) guidance system, invented by Dr. William C. McCorkle and Mr. R.G. Conard of OML, was a primary candidate for Missile "B". The concept was successfully demonstrated during this period by an experimental Missile "A" using a constant thrust propulsion and variable aerodynamic missile drag.
It seems he's changed his tune on things. Anyway that paper on capacitors was some balloon he sent up.
