My Dad worked for and retired from Garrett AiResearch. Best known for the Garrett Turbo Chargers today.
That's cool. I learned something today. I didnt know that Lockheed and Martin were 2 separate companies. I actually never heard of Martin Marietta till this post. Sounds like you dad had a cool sweet job. It must of been cool growing up with kids being connected to the aerospace one way or another. I grew up in Pomona, so my parents did a great job keeping us out of trouble. Also cool where your dad retired from. Hope retirement is great.
