Dr. Harry Fair was the Chief of Propulsion Technology, Applied Sciences Division, at ARRADCOM (U.S. Army Armament Research & Development Command, Large Caliber Weapons Systems Laboratory) at Picatinny Arsenal in Dover, New Jersey. He was involved in the Railgun Project.1

Fair met with Michael Riconosciuto and Robert Frye (Vice President of Wackenhut Corporation) in May 1981 at Picatinny Arsenal. Riconosciuto conducted an extensive and highly technical theoretical blackboard exercise on a Railgun for Army personnel. Fair commented that he was extremely impressed with Riconosciuto's scientific and technical knowledge and termed him a "potential national resource," despite being apprised by Dr. John Philip Nichols that Riconosciuto had been convicted and served time for stabbing a DEA agent.1

Dr. John Philip Nichols also addressed a letter to Dr. Harry Fair on January 20, 1983, on Wackenhut/Cabazon letterhead, stating that he would be forwarding a "unique list of agents and production techniques related to biological warfare." The letter mentioned that the Storemont Laboratories business plan Nichols mailed to Fair was to prepare him for what was to be sent in the area of biological warfare, noting that these products could be used in "small countries bordering Albania or large countries bordering the Soviet Union."1

Robert Booth Nichols also wrote a letter to Joseph F. Preloznik on April 13, 1983, recapitulating the same weapons proposal outlined by Dr. John Philip Nichols to Dr. Harry Fair. Robert Booth Nichols also mentioned Fair in a February 10, 1984, letter on Meridian Arms letterhead, referring to the Wackenhut Corporation visit to Picatinny Arsenal in May 1981 and Riconosciuto's demonstration of electrostatic heat transfer augmentation.1
