Biographical History
Robert Arthur Howard (1920-1992), born in Jersey City, New Jersey, came to Alaska late in 1942 as a member of the U. S. Army Signal Corps. Initially stationed at Whittier, he was transferred to Attu early in 1943. At the end of 1944 he was transferred back to Whittier, where he helped to lay cable for the Alaska Communication System in the tunnels. He continued to work for the Alaska Communication System to 1957. In that time he was stationed in Ketchikan, Seattle, Adak, Unalaska, and Anchorage. In 1957 he was sent to Fort Huachucha, Arizona, for retraining, and was then transferred to Germany, where he served until his honorable discharge. He married Dorothy I. Kinkead (née Hamann, 1918-1998) in Ketchikan in 1945. The couple later divorced, and Dorothy subsequently married Robert B. Clifton of Valdez, Alaska.
