Henry Arnold Karo
Henry Arnold Karo (December 24, 1903 – May 23, 1986) was a vice admiral in the former U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey Corps, which is today known as the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Commissioned Officer Corps. Vice Admiral Karo spent most of his working career in the U.S. National Geodetic Survey, which provides coastal maps and charts for the nation. He rose through the organization's bureaucracy to become the next to last director of the survey.〔( "Vice Adm. H. Karo, 82, Dies; Headed U.S. Geodetic Survey," ) ''New York Times.'' May 30, 1986.〕
Karo had been involved in the survey since 1923, but the advent of World War II forced him to take on other duties. In this period, he rose to the rank of rear admiral. At war's end, he returned to his work with the survey team.〔( "Karo Heads Geodetic Survey," ) ''New York Times.'' August 14, 1955.〕
==World War II==
Karo was transferred from the survey to the Army Air Forces in World War II, when he was commanding officer of the Air Force Aeronautical Chart Center in St. Louis.〔 Initially, he was given the Army rank of Major, and was promoted to Colonel during this period; but Karo returned to the survey as with the Rank of Rear Admiral (see photo caption) at the end of the war.
