Here are scanned pages from a pamphlet that was originally published as a
magazine article about
the Sun Shipbuilding and Dry Dock Company.

I was working at the shipyard at this time, in the Mechanical Maintenance
(84) department. I've
worked the linear launches as part of the hydraulic team (which literally
pushed the ship on
rollers onto the floating dry dock), and also worked on the dry dock
pretty much full time at this
point, and on the cranes.

Thanks. My dad had even more stories about that place, but died before we could get him to record
them :-(
