He served in the United States Army. He then worked 31 years as a Patent Examiner at the United States Patent and Trademark Office. His area of expertise was in electronics. Palmer developed many special friendships with his colleagues at the patent office and they maintained their strong connection throughout the years after retirement through “The Lunch Bunch” gatherings. Palmer truly enjoyed working in the field of patents so after retiring, he continued working as a Patent Agent throughout the rest of his life. He was glad to help many clients turned friends obtain patents for their inventions. After years of helping others with their patents, Palmer finally decided to pursue getting a patent for his own invention. Recently in March 2020, he was proud to say he was awarded a patent for his garment invention.
