Owned by William S. Roe who help found the National Association of Rocketry in 1958. This slide rule can be seen doing Altitude Redustion in an eary NAR 16mm promotional movie. The hands in the picture belong to Bill's son, John Roe, who helped provide the scan. Bill used this slide rule in Japan when he was stationed there. Bill was a great influence and father figure to many young rocketeers of that era including the curator of ISRM.
