In January 1960, Dana graduated from Marshall University with a B.S. Degree in Engineering Science.  Shortly thereafter, he was hired by the Corps of Engineers in February 1960, and began a career spanning 35 years of federal service in the Louisville District, the Ohio Division office, and the Huntington District office.  As a licensed professional engineer and licensed land surveyor, Dana was passionate about his work with the Corps.  He worked on locks and dams in Kentucky, Ohio, and West Virginia; oversaw military construction at Bluegrass Station (Avon Industrial Park); and managed military construction in Germany for NATO.  He was instrumental in building three lakes in northern Indiana and in 1970 moved to Morehead to become the resident engineer for Cave Run Lake.  He retired from the Corps of Engineers, Huntington District, in 1995.
