After his testimony, McDonald was demoted from his position at Thiokol.[2] Neufeld says he “was treated as a traitor and pariah by NASA and his own company, but, thanks in part to congressional pressure, was allowed to redesign the boosters ...”[11] Members of Congress threatened to prevent Thiokol from gaining future NASA work, leading the company to back down. McDonald was promoted to vice president and put in charge of the redesign and requalification of the solid rocket motors.[1][2]
This man was a Patriot. He did his best to try to save those lives.
No one at his company listened to him. And punished him afterward.
RIP Patriot.
I saw him speak in LA a few years ago. He and a few other engineers took some heat for speaking out. RIP.
Did someone else sign off instead??
