Well, of course, I guess at the time it wouldn't have made too much difference anyway.
If he had of come in, I would have retired.
Q ..
Who was that?
A ..
That was Tommy Sands.
Q ..
Oh, Tommy Sands. When he was down at LMVD [Lower Mississippi Valley Division]?
A ..
Yes. Nobody comes from LMVD to be the Director of Civil Works. At least, I had
never heard of any of them who ever did.
Q ..
Well, they've got one up here now who is acting director, Art Williams.
A ..
Yes, that is a switch.
Q ..
But he's a different person. He is a very solid person.
A ..
Usually, when they put them down in LMVD, that is their last job before they retire.
Q ..
I don't think so in this guy's case. I think Art might have a pretty good shot at being the
next Chief.
A ..
Well, that wasn't always the case for that type of thing. Let's see there was Rollins
[Major General Andrew Rollins]--didn't he come in as deputy chief?
Q ..
Yes, he was deputy chief.
A ..
He was deputy chief after he had been division engineer.
Q.
I'd like to begin by asking you if you have any additional thoughts about what we talked

about last time?
