I used to work for AEPCO a federal contractor. It was US Army contract work at an Army base for logistics. It was 1996 and they used all kinds of legacy systems. I was in the US Army ROTC which helped learn military terms. But I upsized databases from DBase Lotus 123 Clipper to MS Access and SQL Server and Oracle PL SQL. This skill of converting data from legacy systems to modern ones pays a lot.
