Until relatively recently I worked with JANET (or Janet - lower case - as it is now) as part of Jisc, the UK's NREN. I also worked with the wider European org, GEANT, that runs the academic networks across Europe. We were (and still are ) very proud of Janet.
Thanks for your service. I did not know JANET was formed in April
1984. Then I was still at school, and we had a teletype that you
could send emails. Of course those days no one had email so we had a
class of kids sending emails to each other to print out on tty
paper. I think the broader implications may have been lost in that
lesson. It wes probably a BBS rather than JANET.
