    DUNCAN, SC, July 03, 2020 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Claude Going has been included in Marquis Who's Who. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.

Mr. Going is an esteemed aerospace industry veteran with more than 40 years of expertise in nondestructive materials examination and testing. Inspired by his father, an Air Force veteran, he participated in the Reserve Officers Training Corps as a high school student, and planned to serve in the military upon graduation. During his recruitment process, Mr. Going was coerced into a general enlistment, rather than taking advantage of his ROTC experience and enlisting with a guaranteed career path.

After a year as a security policeman, Mr. Going was offered an opportunity to cross-train, and ranked his preference between three specialties. He was assigned non-destructive testing, his lowest choice, but quickly found an enjoyment for the process that opened a variety of doors into different areas of the aerospace industry. In 1986, Mr. Going became certified as a Level III by the American Society for Nondestructive Testing in radiography, ultrasonic, penetrant, and magnetic particle methods, and he obtained a certified welding inspector credential from the American Welding Society.

In 2003, Mr. Going earned a Bachelor of Science in Professional Aeronautics from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. He subsequently pursued a Master of Arts in Aeronautical Sciences, summa cum grande, at the aforementioned university, graduating in 2006. Beginning his career with Chemical Systems Division of United Technologies, Mr. Going later worked for years with Pratt & Whitney Space Propulsion and at the Kennedy Space Center.

Throughout his career, Mr. Going has been recognized for his innovations in materials and safety. During his time at the Kennedy Space Center, he was presented with two NASA Group Achievement Awards for his work on the IEA Harness Team and for his work in the development of materials testing standards and techniques. Currently, Mr. Going flourishes as a senior nondestructive examination engineer for General Electric, a position he has held for ten years.

A lifelong supporter of scouting and fraternal organizations, Mr. Going is active in the National Eagle Scouts Association of the Boy Scouts of America, the Oathkeepers Association and the National Rifle Association. Passionate about the impact that adult mentors can have on the lives of children, he dedicates his time as a volunteer counselor for the Boy Scouts of America. A Boy Scout since childhood, he attributes much of his professional success to the values and independence that he learned from scouting. Looking toward the future, Mr. Going hopes to retire in order to devote his time to traveling and working with community safety initiatives benefiting youth and the elderly.
