I started
working at the Glenn L. Martin Company in 1939 for 40 cents an hour. Excluding
the two years I served in the Air Force during World War II, my one and only
job for 47 years was working for the Martin Company. I retired in 1986 as Vice
President of Aerostructures Programs. Not wanting to miss the comradeship of
fellow co-workers when retiring, we made plans and formed a retirement
organization called RAMM (Retired Association of Martin Marietta), which is
still active today. It was an honor knowing and working for Glenn L. Martin,
one of the great pioneers of aviation and I cherish the memories of those 47
years at the Martin Company.
I still love to keep in touch with co-workers! |
