You should really do some digging and do a proper write up, it would make one hell of a story and I'm sure your dad would approve. So many people working hard without any recognition but that's no reason not to illuminate that a bit.

He's gone. And I only have the anecdotal info from colleagues he worked with. MANY scientists are swept under the carpet due to the recognition power play that occurs at the high institutional echelons. I can't prove that either. My dad was a modest man and never extolled his past successes. So, I'll never really know.
