Del Parker's Parkerosa
It's tough for someone to really make their mark
in this business. I think seeing Dad's vision come to life in the form of a soap
reconstitutor really gave my life new meaning. It was good to finally put some of my
training from college to good use.
In this photo, Darla is shown with an early prototype of Parker's Soap Reconstitutor - this was before we incorporated the protein extraction unit overpressure bypass. We were lucky to have some of this same technology used and adapted by NASA for use in Project Schlepnik.
After our initial success with a single nozzle device, Darla suggested a dual nozzle setup. Hey, if one nozzle works good, two's got to work twice as good, right? Not only did it work better, but, the operators seemed to enjoy themselves that much more. Darla's total enthusiasm for the project soon earned her the position of director of R & D.
