" Ii wasn't Christmas I've, il was April VI, 19X5 lour years to the day from the first Space liuttle flight. And the man with a lot of "little boy" still left in him was Jake (iani, the senior U.S. in 1 1 1 nun-tte- -- - senator ti'oni Ut;ih, prepiir- mil for his landmark flight ... ; r-- on the Spare Shuttle Discovery For the first time, a member of Congress was aboard, serving as a payload specialist and qalherini; first hand infor- n work. Jake (iarn attended Utah public schools and graduate of the University of Utah, where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in business and finance. He married his first wife, the former Hazel Thompson, in 1957, and they had four children, Jake Jr., Susan, Fllen and Jeffery, before her death. In 1977, he married Kathleen Ikewerton who had a son, Brook, from a previous marriage. Jake and Kathleen also have a son Matthew; a daughter, Jennifer; and 16 grandchildren. (iarn served as a Navy pilot from achieving the rank of lieutenant. He flew the SNB, S2F, PBM, and including patrol missions along the Yellow Sea and coasts of China and Korea. le then joined the Naval Reserve and. in 1962, applied for service to fly with the Utah Air National Guard. Col. George Caldwell, then commander of the Guard's 151st Military Airlift G roup at Salt Like City, initially discounted the application, but (iarn kept trying. Dual qualified by the Navy as a navigator as well as a pilot, Garn offered to serve as a navigator as well. Realizing he just wanted to fly and serve his country, and aware of his ability as an aviator, Caldwell accepted Garn's application. Garn retired as a brigadier general in the Utah Air National Guard, and logged more than 10,000 hours of pilot time in military aircraft. He has an Air Force rating as a command pilot and as such flew the is a 1956-196- SNJ.T-34.T-2- P-5- 1 top-notc- h KC-13- He fondly remembers his time in the left seat of Air Force cargo and air refueling aircraft.

He served on several subcommittees including International Finance and Monetary Policy; Defense; Military Construction; Research and Development; and National Parks and Forests. Also, he was a member of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, and served as secretary of the Republican Conference. He was to a second term as a U.S. Utah Senator in 1980 and to a third term in 1986 with 74 percent of the vote in each election the two largest victories in a statewide race in Utah history. Garn was invited by NASA to fly as a payload specialist on Discovery's on Flight 51-- in November 1984. During the seven-daflight, the senator performed various medical tests related to space motion sickness, many of which were done for the first time. He also supported the crew in preparing for its unplanned rendezvous and satellite rescue attempt. This flight landed at Cape Canaveral on April 19, 1985, after six days, 23 hours, 55 minutes and 23 seconds, and orbiting the earth 109 times. Jake Garn is a strong supporter of NASA, U.S. y airpower, and Hill AFB in particular. For instance, on Oct., 28, 1987, he entered into the record of the 100th Congress the historic information concerning Hill's two 6 fighter wings placing one and two in the U.S Air Force's "Gun-smok- IN 1 competition. Garn retired from the U.S. Senate in 1992 to return to Utah. He currently serves on several boards and is involved with numerous local endeavors that include the Salt Lake City Airport Authority. He continues to fly, especially his "Navion," North American Aviation "baby brother." He purchased it decades ago for $5,000 and since has spent many more thousands of dollars refurbishing it. He flew the highly pol- l'f DM YOU W COMPARE ""-- i ished aluminum, single-engin- e e aircraft for all to see in the 1999 Hill AFB Air Show, and is expected to fly it in the "Inventing Flight" celebration in Dayton, Ohio, this summer. List week, on April 8, for their 26th wedding anniversary, the Garn's took a Navion flight over the scenic northeast canyon areas above L)gan and Echo, including "some strafing runs on a few ridges." Jake said that as long as they were there, he couldn't resist passes on some of the ridges once a fighter pilot, always a fighter pilot. Kathleen didn't much like the strafing runs, but enjoyed flying and a great anniversary day. "For Jake, flying's cheaper than a psychiatrist," she commented, "and more effective!"
