Carroll H. Dunn
Foreword
This is the eleventh publication in the
series of career interviews. The series
contains the selected recollections of major figures in recent Corps history. These memoirs lend
important perspective to decisionmaking, now and in the future. By making these recollections
available, the series preserves and shares the knowledge and experience of retired Corps
and civilians.
Carroll H. Dunn had a distinguished career in the United States Army, which culminated with
his two-year tenure as the director of the Defense Nuclear Agency from 197 1 to 1973. In his
earlier assignments he commanded the 105th Engineer Combat Battalion in the European
Theater during World War II and was the executive to the Chief of Engineers. He headed the
Directorate of Construction, Military Assistance Command, Vietnam, and the Directorate of
Military Construction, Office of the Chief of Engineers. His last assignment with the Corps was
as Deputy Chief of Engineers. I recommend this interview to thoughtful
and civilians
of the engineer family.
