NSWCDD 2020 National Disability Employee Awareness Month – Employee Profile: Matthew Roles
October 5, 2020
IMAGE: Matthew Roles – a Battle Management System (BMS) systems engineer at Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division (NSWCDD) – co-pilots a B-52 somewhere over the Pacific Ocean while on a Pacific Bomber Presence deployment to Guam in 2007. As a U.S. Air Force officer, Roles flew the F-16 Fighting Falcon and the B-52 Stratofortress until a stroke ended his active duty career. He started his government civilian career in 2009 at NSWC Dahlgren Division as a lethality and effectiveness analyst. He eventually became the Navy technical representative to the Joint Technical Coordinating Group for Munition Effectiveness Collateral Damage Working Group before joining BMS where he works to demonstrate the capability for a future long-range, unmanned concept.

Laser Tests at Dahlgren Measure Optical Effects That Make Stars Twinkle
October 1, 2020
IMAGE: DAHLGREN, Va. - Henry Wilson - a STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) student employment program intern - launches a weather balloon to record a vertical optical turbulence profile in support of a collaborative research project combining the Navy’s next-generation laser weapons with maritime environmental challenges. Dr. Evan Bates - a Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division systems engineer who leads the High Energy Laser Measurement Support Laboratory - hopes to take the instruments used for optical turbulence measurements and incorporate them into shipboard lasers in the future. “You want to be able to get a real-time measurement with a single-ended system, because if we can get that we can look at the environment and evaluate the atmospheric effects on laser transmission to the target," said Bates. “That’s the end goal of optical turbulence instrumentation.” (U.S. Navy photo/Released)
