I did. It was handy to build a special purpose language. With care you 
could almost have a natural language interface. I got one job because I 
was conversant with Forth. The deliverable for the project was a fuel 
measurement and management system for an aircraft but what I worked on was 
the test gear. 

It was a rather interesting concept. If you're motoring along in your, 
let's say Piper Cub', and lose something like maybe a bomb moving fuel 
around to maintain your CG is handy.

Unfortunately DoD projects move at a glacial pace. Work on one and you 
realize why everything is 10 years late, costs 20 times as much as 
estimated, and doesn't work. 

The best part was the company sent me to the Forth conference at Rochester 
and I met Charlie Moore. Strange guy.  Forth was also used at the King 
Whosis Airport in Riyadh. Khalid? Fahd? There were some lucrative 
contracts on offer for Forth programmers but somehow I didn't think I'd 
fit in well.

Kitts Peak was another user. 

There is an amazingly small core of assembler. You start threading 
together words and making up new ones as you go along. That means if you 
look at an unfamiliar chunk of Forth you have no idea what BLIVIT is. If 
you're really perverse 2 might not mean what you think it does.
