Veterans

I retired from Alcatel-Lucent with 43 years, formerly known as Western Electric Bell Labs, and now am considered a Nokia retiree. AT&T bought my company, Automatic Electric after the consent decree separating manufacturing from the rest of the business. That became AGCS(att/gte communications systems) and eventually rolled into Lucent. We joke that everything we ever installed is now in the junk heap/asset recovery, sad to say.

I photographed a good deal of those 43 years if you would like to take a look!
