We just got reeeelly great news. Aviation Week & Space Technology's 49th Annual Laurels Selections were announced last week and Mom's brother was recognized along with the Michoud Hurricane Katrina "ride-out team" he was in charge of during Katrina.
Aviation Week & Space Technology is proud to present the 2006 Laurels--men and women from around the world whose accomplishments in 2005 are worthy of recognition. Laurels are compiled by the magazine's editors, based on a rigorous screening of many excellent candidates. Aviation Week will honor them on Apr. 7 at the 49th annual Laureate Awards event. The venue: The Smithsonian Institution's extraordinary National Air and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center near Washington. The highlight of the evening will be Aviation Week's announcement of the 2006 Laureates. They are among the following Laurels in eight discrete categories, and epitomize the creativity, dedication and optimism that are the heart and soul of aviation and aerospace.
SPACE LAURELS: Mom's bro, Lockheed Martin vice president and general manager of Michoud Operations in New Orleans, and the Michoud Hurricane Katrina "ride-out team," for leadership of the contractor/NASA workforce through great personal hardship to save the critical shuttle external tank facility from the storm.
