Details

Marguerite (Peggy) Moilliet Rogers (1915–1989) was an American physicist who became the "country's leading authority in the field of air-launched conventional weapons". She conducted ordnance research during World War II for the Navy and spent the majority of her career at the Naval Ordnance Test Station (today the Naval Air Warfare Center) at China Lake, California working in electronics and analysis. Nicknamed the “First Lady of China Lake”, Rogers significantly contributed to free-fall weapons. Her many awards included Fellow of the American Physical Society, the Society of Women Engineers’ Achievement Award, the Department of Defense Distinguished Civilian Service Award, and the L.T.E. Thompson Award from the Naval Weapons Center. Rogers left a legacy as a role model and trailblazer. In 2023, the Dr. Marguerite “Peggy” Rogers Laboratory was commissioned at the Naval Air Warfare Center Weapons Division at China Lake, California.
