The City of Presidents and doughnuts.

My Father, and his brother worked at the Fore River (Quincy) ship yard after he was DC'd from the USMC in the early 50's. It was a bustling workplace where thousands of Bostonians were employed and made a strong wage.

Some worthless trivia, The founder of Dunkin' Donuts Bill Rosenberg, worked there as well. The limited break options available to the 24* Fore River gangs spawned his brilliant idea! There is still a Dunks on that same site in Quincy since 1950 happy.gif

Oh, and I'd like a scan please.
