Albert Philip McCabe
Born November 20, 1910, Uniontown, Pennsylvania. Photo taken around 1953, Pacoima, California. Al McCabe was a well-known engineer. He was the sole inventor of the missile error scorer, now known as the Global Positioning System. He presented it as a patent in 1955. It is not known what became of the patent nor the outcome of the patent. I have an original draft of the patent in which he had red penciled in a co-inventor's name. Hugo E. Stark. It is believed he sold the patent rights because he did not have the money to pursue the project.
He was also the Chief Engineer for the Apollo Spacecraft program in 1965. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Manned Spacecraft Center, Houston, Texas, sent him a letter of appreciation signed by all of the Astronauts involved with program. The letter is dated March 17, 1965. Astronauts signed letter
