Summary

Description
English: Major General Gladeon M. Barnes, then chief of the Army Ordnance Research and Development Service, visited the fledgling Jet Propulsion Laboratory in January 1945. Barnes, on the right, and JPL Acting Director Frank Malina stand near a Private mockup. Private was a small short-range unguided missile with a solid propellant engine. JPL's first successful rocket test flight came with the 1944 launch of Private A at Camp Irwin in the Mojave Desert.
