Lockheed Martin Aeronautics Facility Tour

On October 23, 2012, 36 Chapter members and spouses participated in a behind-the-scenes VIP tour of the Lockheed Martin Aeronautics plant in Marietta, GA. The tour was arranged by Atlanta Chapter member and Lockheed Martin Director, Mary Snitch. Hamilton Holmes, Lockheed Martin Community Relations Manager, provided a very helpful company overview and the plant tour was conducted by young engineers, Britney Smith and Melissa Merritt. The ARCS group walked the entire flight line and was briefed on the production of many current aeronautical programs, including the F-16 Fighting Falcon; the airlifter C130J; the first operational stealth fighter, the F-117 Nighthawk; and the 5th Generation fighters, F-22 Raptor and F-35 Lightening II. Thank you to Lockheed Martin!

Let me start by saying how thankful I am for being selected as an ARCS scholar.  I consider it one of my greatest achievements thus far and I am immensely proud to count myself as one of the amazing group of students that your organization selected to receive this award.  I want you ladies to know you are doing an outstanding job!  You all are embarked on a truly altruistic endeavor and it is my fervent prayer that this organization thrives for years to come.
