Biography

Malchiodi was born July 18, 1942 in New London, the son of the late Alfred and Josephine (Donatello) Malchiodi.

After graduating from New London High School, he attended Worcester Polytechnic Institute, graduating with a degree in electrical engineering in 1964.

Malchiodi married Tillie Oppido on June 1, 1968.

He was employed by Electric Boat for over 40 years as an electrical engineer. After working on the USS Narwhal (SSN-671), USS Glenard P. Lipscomb (SSN-685) and NR-1 Deep Submergence Craft, he became Chief Engineer for the Trident Program and USS Memphis (SSN-691), then Director of Engineering for Virginia class submarines. On retirement he was Director of Submarine Concept Formulation.

In 2000, he received the General Dynamics Technology Excellence Award.[1] In 2003 he received the Gibbs Brothers Medal from the National Academy of Sciences for leading innovations in developing the naval architecture of submarines for the efficient utilization of advanced technology.[2]

Malchiodi retired in 2005. He died on February 28, 2011 of lung cancer.

gollark: Then it would be `ctx.bot.database` on all calls, which is very inelegant.
gollark: Golang!
gollark: no.
gollark: ```pythonasync def run_bot(): global database database = await db.init(config["database"]) await bot.start(config["token"])```
gollark: My thing just uses `bot.run` or something.
