In behalf of Bluebills, Bob Lambert (left, below) thanked representatives of McChord Air Force Base for hosting a Bluebill visit in October. Left to right are Airman Keenan Fitgerald, loadmaster, and Lt. Colonel and Mrs. John Thomas. Lambert presented the base with a Bluebill photo to hang in their Heritage Room in appreciation for the services they are providing in behalf of our country and for their warm welcome to us. Lambert told dinner guests at the November 5 Heritage recognition dinner how impressed with the site and the dedicated young people who work there. Every part of the tour heightened our awareness of the important role McChord Air Force Base plays in national defense, he said. A plaque on the photo frame reads :"The 8th Airlift Squadron Defending Freedom - from Boeing Bluebills."

| Spreading the Word at Awareness Fairs |
Bluebills managed to cover every Puget Sound Boeing site that held awareness fairs this season. From their Bluebill booth, they handed out brochures and questionnaires and answered lots of questions, hoping to tempt employees headed for retirement to join the Bluebill ranks.
Richard & Norma Vaughn and Margaret Stone did the duty at the Renton Awareness Fair and the car and motorcycle show, held in mid-August. This picture shows Richard, presenting Boeing employee Junior James with a bucketful of car cleaning supplies, our booth's prize. Boeing Community Relations provided each booth with a prize.
