I've been able to track three of them down. These are pre-war positions. F.T. Winter was the manager of the Maritimes region in Halifax. Jackson was the manager of the radio and appliance division and Bird was the Technical Liaison officer. I suspect the other two were in management as well.

Prior to the war Canadian Marconi had a lot invested in marine radio so Winter's experience with the marine crowd in Halifax was useful.

Thanks for that, Bruce. I find it interesting how the various parts of large corporations come together on major projects.
