Thanks a lot gatso76.

Searched EG&G on Wikipedia and came up with some interesting stuff:

"EG&G builds a variety of sensing, detection and imaging products including night vision equipment, sensors used to detect nuclear material and chemical and biological weapons agents, and a variety of acoustic sensors. The company also supplies microwave and electronic components to the government, security systems, and systems for electronic warfare and mine countermeasures. During the 1950s and 60s EG&G was heavily involved in nuclear tests as a major contractor for the Atomic Energy Commission. EG&G made extensive use of the Nevada Test Site for weapons development and high-technology military testing, including the SR-71 at Groom Lake (Area 51). EG&G has shared operations responsibility for the NTS with Livermore Labs, Raytheon Services Nevada, Reynolds Electrical and Engineering (REECO) and others.
EG&G is also notable as the operator of Janet Airlines, a small fleet of Boeing 737/T-43A passenger jets. The aircraft serve the Nevada Test Site (most notably Area 51) from their terminal at Las Vegas' McCarran International Airport."

Don't quite know what to make of this

Thanks again,
Dirk.
