Makar’s career and escape linked to new postings
The army said Makar worked with another government agency for over a year before joining White Sands. He resigned his civilian army post in February 1953 before a loyalty check.

Makar had been an associate professor of engineering since September 1954 at St Louis University, fired August 31 for European methods not meeting American standards. He was a geodesy and photogrammetry specialist, attended a Stockholm conference last July, and studied at the Technical University of Lemberg. He had taught in Warsaw and Munich before moving to the United States and had worked for the Interior Geodetic Survey before the army.
