I worked from '81 to '94 in and around DoD training from Orlando.  I 
served first at what is now the UCF Institute for Simulation and 
Training, then as  a GS at NAWC-TSD and later as a contractor, including 
a stint as Facility Security Officer for one company.  I worked on 
projects funded through the Navy and through the Army's STRICOM.  I also 
worked on some NASA projects through UCF IST.  This was the era when 
computer based training went from PLATO terminals to stand-alone 486 
machines, and a whole lot of mainframe, mostly VAX, legacy databases and 
figuring out how to add and access secure images to databases written in 
dbase II and other dinosaurs.  This was the time when digital libraries 
in instructional systems were very cutting edge, and we were making it 
up as we went.  My specialty was what would now fall into Educational 
Informatics, although I wrote a TON of SQL and C code (fewer hands make 
a more secure project!).  I also did a few interesting things with 
embedded training on computer systems for sister agencies... so I think 
I can say  yes to your question...
