Capitol Radio Engineering Institute
was founded in 1927 as a correspondence
school by Eugene H. Rietzke, a Navy radio
operator and his wife Lillie Lou Rietzke.
Eugene was born in 1897 and he served in WWI
eventually becoming Chief Instructor at the
Bellevue Naval Radio Material School.
Five years later, in 1932, a residence
division was opened, allowing students to
reside at the school and study in laboratories.
This facility remained at the corner of 16th
Street NW and
Park Road in Washington,
D.C. for
30 years. In 1946, following World
War II, the Institute was accredited by the Engineers'
Council for Professional Development
