Jerry is one of four recipients being recognized for their invaluable contributions to the ground-breaking 发展 and deployment of water mist fire suppression technology. Water mist technology emerged approximately 30 years ago in response to the need for a safer, more effective and environmentally sustainable fire suppression method. The technology has become essential for protecting places where traditional fire suppression systems could cause significant water damage, 比如文化遗址, 艺术画廊, 铁路客车, and commercial computer and data storage rooms.

Jerry is being acknowledged by the selection committee for his leadership and research in developing water mist technology applications for military vessels. Among his notable achievements is the creation of the "Navy" water mist nozzle, which the U.S. 采用海军保护机械空间. He also developed a model to predict the effectiveness of 细水雾系统 in extinguishing hydrocarbon fuel fires in obstructed areas and conducted over 1,000 fire tests involving water mist technology.
