Meet Fellow Alum John Ingram  

As a lead analyst and communications engineer at a Department of Defense contracted company, Capitol College alumnus John Ingram has been involved with life-saving work.

 

John IngramA retired Army National Guard member and Marine Corps veteran, Ingram is currently in a position that has him testing products that will eventually be used by the United States Air Force. A medical application or widget that is being produced for military members is sent to Ingram's team, who test and judge how effective the product will be for the user.

 

"It's a very technological organization where we can look at various things," Ingram said. "We're looking at LED lighting in field hospital tents, for example. We've looked at rapid-tent technologies where instead of the standard Air Force hospital taking five to six hours [to assemble], you can put up a tent in 20 minutes and start seeing patients."
