MVO at Buffalo Naval Park
Members of Moog Veterans Organization recently joined forces with other Moog EA employees for an incredible day of service at the Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military Park. Over 40+ Moogers donated their time and skills on painting, electrical, metal work / welding, and plumbing projects on USS The Sullivans and USS Little Rock! What a great way to give back and support our Veterans around Veterans Day.
The first application of Bill Moog’s nozzle/flapper servo valve invention was the Bumblebee Missile Program, which resulted in the U.S. Navy’s Talos missile. In the 1950s, the newly developed servo valve unlocked the ability to accurately position a control surface under high loads with fast dynamic response, all inside the small tail section of a fast-moving missile. Thank you all who came out and graciously donated their time for these amazing pieces of history we have right here in Buffalo, NY.
