I used to work for Proprietary Software Systems - a small (< 35) company that won the contract
to maintain and upgrade the base 1750A JOVIAL compiler for the USAF. Unless they received exemptions, 
contractors developing embedded applications for ordinance or on-board flight systems were required to 
use the 1750A/JOVIAL combination.
