Human Interest - HL 131 (3)



Date: 6/10/2012 11:39:45 PM


Subject: Quote from Mr. Garrett

Mark,

I had an opportunity to actually work with and speak with individuals who went as far back as CEW. However, I came aboard later and was there for the reign of Dave Garrett. I want to share part of a conversation I had with him one on one for an hour while commuting from JAX to ATL.

He told me that he was given advice by CEW that if one hired the best people and in particular pilot's he would find it easier to sleep at night. Mr. Garrett told me he slept very well at night. I am sure many will remember tough contract fights because he was also a tough business man. At the same time I came away with a concept of the underlying respect he had for the people who flew Delta's aircraft. We all know that respect or "perception of it" was something that has not always been felt by the pilot group.

Regards,

Rick Bauer

Vietnam Wall - THIS IS AMAZING

This is really sobering. Click on the link and find the city you went to high school and look at the names.

Click on the name and it will give details of the death.

Vietnam Wall

First click on a state. When it opens, scroll down to the city and the names will appear. Then click on their names. It should show you picture of the person, or at least their bio and medals.

This really is an amazing web site. Someone spent a lot of time and effort to create it.

I hope that everyone who receives this appreciates what those who served in Vietnam sacrificed for our country. The link below is a virtual wall of all those lost during the Vietnam War with the names, bio's and other information on our lost heroes.

Those who remember that time frame, or perhaps lost friends or family can look them up on this site.

Pass the link on to others, as many knew wonderful people whose names are listed.
