  The first in this set of African-Americans and Caucasians working together. In Texas, no less.

  I remember the Shipyards in Beaumont, Texas. Our next door neighbor worked there in the late 1940's. Looking towards the Neches River and Port of Beaumont, you could see the bright flashes of the welding torches working late into the night. In the 1960's, the Shipyard's employed Radiological Technologist's to take Industrial X-rays of ship welds.

  I'm confused. The title says workers leaving the Pennsylvania shipyards and that it was taken in Beaumont, Texas. Typo?

• mlmk said:

  I believe that Pennsylvania was from the company name. See www.coltoncompany.com/shipbldg/ussbldrs/wwii/merchantship... for a bit of history
