Default Fellow in the Mural

Hanno,

I had a wonderful experience and a unique opportunity to speak to the gentleman in the mural who was wearing the cap and goggles. He was a teenager during the war and was a test driver for the Carriers and CMPs built by Ford. He is still alive today and in good health for his age.

Cheers

Mike Timoshyk
