Floyd G. George enlisted in the United States Army on 23 May 1947. In 1954, a U.S. Army Security Agency element (52nd United States Army Security Agency (USASA) Special Operations Command was established at Fort Huachuca, AZ, to test intelligence and electronic warfare systems to support the Army Security Agency. In 1963, Staff Sergeant George was sent to Fort Huachuca to build the first part of Hayes Hall. He completed the construction supervision of Hayes Hall, and the USASA moved into the state-of-the-art compound in 1965. Following the completion of the new test facilities, he took over as the Noncommissioned Officer in Charge (NCOIC) for the Maintenance Annex. He retired from active-duty service on 31 July 1968 with a career of over 20 years. Following retirement, Mr. George returned to Hayes Hall, where he was instrumental in operational testing and facility management. He spearheaded countless initiatives over the next 44 years. He defined the requirements and oversaw the construction of the Operational Test Control Center (The Bunker), which still provides enhanced integration of realistic threats into open-air operational tests. Fort Huachuca became the forefront of electronic testing for the U.S. Army. Floyd led the construction of additional wings to Hayes Hall and expanded the test facilities through customized trailers for Joint National-level exercises such as Empire Challenge. He designed the framework for the Intelligence Systems Integration Laboratory (ISIL), a 5,400-square-foot renovation costing nearly $1.5 million. The ISIL is a unique configurable classified computing environment that allows for real-time testing of intelligence and is the basis for future multi-domain operational testing in a live virtual constructive environment. His efforts significantly contributed to the construction of the Hayes Hall Compound and the overall operational test mission at Fort Huachuca.

From SSG George's arrival at Fort Huachuca in 1963, his military retirement in 1968, and his civilian retirement in July 2012, he was employed as the Fabrication Shop Foreman and Facilities Manager. During this time, he was responsible for constructing, fabricating, installing, modifying, and repairing the intelligence and electronic warfare systems for all testing on Fort Huachuca. He had a remarkable understanding of fabrication and the electromagnetic environment, which allowed him to create specialized tools and equipment for emerging U.S. Army technology. He fabricated antennas, mounts, reflectors, radar targets, specialized tracks, and equipment racks and completely refurbished and rewired the shelters and vans for operational tests from 1963 to 2012. Upon his retirement from civil service on 31 July 2012, he had over 60 years of combined military and civilian government service.
