Admiral Grace Hooper. Navy programmer. Kept on duty way beyond retirement because she KNEW all the old computer languages as used on what are now ancient and antiquated systems still in use [legacy devices].

Interestingly enough you google her name the images of a bunch of navy women are shown but NONE are Grace [they do have a black woman of course].
