Although a USNA graduate, he chose to begin his career in the United States Air Force. In 1970, he earned a master's degree in business administration from the University of Southern California.[2] Macleay was a flight instructor in the F-86D at Moody Air Force Base in Georgia.[2] He graduated from the U.S. Air Force Test Pilot School in class 60A, Aerospace Research Pilot School (ARPS) Class IV, and MOL.[3] In 1965, Macleay was selected as one of the first astronauts to the Air Force's classified Manned Orbital Laboratory.[2] The MOL program, canceled in 1969 before sending any astronauts into space, was to man a military space station with Air Force astronauts using a modified Gemini spacecraft.[4] +++++++++++++++++++++++Combining Lots between two auctions, I will be happy to combine two auctions To save you additional postage- Please pay for these lot/lots & postage.
