Jim Veeder, CEO

1972  June 7 Graduate of US Military Academy at West Point, BS General Engineering, 2d Lieutenant US Army commission

1972  Nike-Hercules nuclear missile training August-November, MOS 1180

1972-1974  Firing Control Commanding Officer of launch control 1st platoon for A battery 1/43d Air Defense Artillery, NORAD Command, Alaska

1974 June 7. 1st Lieutenant 

1974-1978  Developed neutron analytical tools for optimizing design yield of nuclear weapons

The heavy work getting these two publications in form and accepted by peers and by the much highly reputed JournalMP itself was all accomplished by my hugely valued advisor Dr. Norman J. McCormack because I was already away doing other very different things and not available to support the steep publication requirements.  Also, Dr. McCormack taught me the the most necessary deep fundamentals to accomplish this and later tasks.  Dr. McCormack, along with Dr. Mohammad Shirazian, LT General Charles Otstott, Dr. Ed Stern, and Professor Henn were the five most helpful academic geniuses forming my capabilities into being the foundation of my my life career.

1975-1977  Graduate study at U of Washington in Seattle, MS Nuclear Engineering

1977  April 8 Received General Alton Slay’s supporting endorsement for my DoD R&D activities of choice.

1978  April 7 and forward to 1982.  Immediately after President Carter cancelled the neutron bomb program received Government sponsored lab assistant, lab space and enrollment in the University of Washington School of Medicine for research and medical school study to apply my neutron scattering analysis to radiation oncology methods within the parameters of precise design of high magnetic field strength for confinement of the secondary fields of ionized electrons for the purpose of minimizing collateral damage to adjacent healthy tissues.

1979       Studied, researched and physically examined the US Navy Patrol Hydrofoil Missile ship (PHM) in its entirety and then authored and delivered the two documents to the US Navy:  PHM Ship Operating Hazard Analysis, and the PHM Subsystem Hazard Analysis. 

1980        B-52 Trestle EMP test, analysis and mitigation design: Revised 30+ dB downward the EMP threat from a high altitude nuclear explosion specifically with 4 threat level reductions of: 1. expected maximum explosion source E and M field strengths,  2.  B-52 EMP cavity penetration, 3.  LRU EMP penetration, and 4.  electrical component vulnerability.

1981         MX missile design for camouflage and decoy of warhead radiation signature.

1982-1987 Stealth Technology analysis and design at Boeing of Air Force, Army and Navy flying, rolling, and stationary inventory under Dr. Paul Kaminski’s broad purview.  Made both disclosure and patents of analysis and design that in production achieved as much as 40 dB of radar cross section reduction.

1985        Formed US Electrodynamics Inc with encouragement from Dr. Kaminski.                          

1987        August 7       Purchased the Brewster Satellite Earth Station in Washington State which at that time had only one satellite antenna, the 30-meter.   Then pursued conversion of the 30-meter satellite communications antenna for the purpose of dynamic range testing of radar backscatter of flying DoD inventory.

1988        Following encouragement from the founder of the NRO, Dr. Joseph Charyk, Col. Wally Lauterbach and their team that planned, designed and built from its very beginning the original COMSAT INTELSAT satellite system, to reestablish Brewster as the preeminent Pacific satellite telecommunications operator.

1989       On behalf of the US DoD, while in Beijing during the two months span from April until just before the June 5 Chinese Army entry into Tiananmen Square,  completed the official but covert agreements between the  DoD and China for  putting into both The Brewster Satellite Earth Station and China special US State Department restricted encryption technology establishing a strong surveillance partnership between China and The United Stated for a worldwide collaborative communication/information friendship that was inherently designed as a strong security measure protecting America and the Free World against the Soviet Union.

1988-Present  Developed a global satellite communications network with Brewster as one of the largest earth stations in the world.

2012-2015  Developed and used the strongest and most advanced analytics and measuring methods based on quantum principles to protect USEI earth stations against RF interference.

Brewster, WA (USA) – U.S. Electrodynamics, Inc. (USEI), a global teleport operator and leader in satellite communications and electronic systems delivery has once again been nominated for Independent Teleport Operator of the Year by World Teleport Association (WTA).  USEI was named the top teleport in the world in 2023. The company is led by CEO, James Veeder, who noted that USEI is “thrilled and honored to again be considered as one of the world’s three best teleport operators. We thank WTA and its members for recognizing our agility and ability to continue to maintain a commitment to operational excellence and a level of customer care that all of us work exceedingly hard at each day.” Mr. Veeder was named the teleport industry’s Executive of the Year in 2022.

Its USA based WTA Certified Tier 4 teleport locations in Brewster, Washington State and Vernon Valley, New Jersey operate 140 satellite antennae on company land spanning 260 acres. Both have recently added additional Ka gateways and a network of C-band monitoring antennas.    The company operates an additional 32 antennae at seven sites throughout Australia, Chile, Germany, Mexico, South Africa, South Korea & Dubai.
