In fact, everything about this 37 year old commander was big. His towering, 240-pound frame didn't quite fit through the Lapon's low hatches and narrow passageways, and he was almost always bent over in the control room, littered overhead with a maze of piping and wire.

From the book "Blind Mans Bluff".
