DOWNLOAD EBOOKGood morning and welcome to the 1985 Ship Production Symposium. This symposium, which is an annual event, is a vital part of the overall National Shipbuilding Research Program. Our theme this year is 'Moving Ahead With The Implementation of Advanced Technology". There are many individuals responsible for-the success of this symposium - not all of them present here - and only two will be noted. Now, Howard thinks I am going to call his name but he will remain a nameless Texan and the two I will honor are Wendy Barhydt and Mary Casto. We have an impressive program this week; and this morning we have three exceptional keynote speakers. It would be an error not to mention the symposium attendees. If you will look to your left or to your right, chances are good that you will see someone that is "somebody". Historically.the attendees at these symposia represent the overwhelming majority of shipbuilders in this country and some oversees. The individual attendees would easily fit into anyone's compilation of a "Who's Who in the American Marine Industry."
