I was a nurse
at Martin Marietta for 16 years, from July 10, 1970 through July 18, 1986. For the
majority of the time, the medical department was staffed by one physician and
two or three nurses. We provided physicals for the executive offices and all
new hires. We triaged all accidents and injuries. The security department functioned
as first responders, although I did assist with an occasional heart attack
victim. The medical department then stabilized and transported the patient in
one of the two ambulances owned by the company. We were a busy team!
After work, I
used to play golf at a course near the plant. When I retired, a man from the
factory gifted me with a sculpture of a nurse playing golf. This wonderful
piece still sits on my shelf and reminds me of the years I worked at Martin
Marietta. I am honored and grateful to be able to share my story. I have had
fun recalling those days and my contribution to Lockheed Martin’s celebration
of 100 years of accelerating tomorrow!
