Bantam, Connecticut. Norman Randall, right, bucks Alec Wasdo's rivets in a sub-assembly shop at the Warren McArthur aircraft seat plant. Randall is a native of Patchogue, Long Island, who came to Bantam from Lowell, Massachusetts, where he learned sheet metal work. He came to Bantam in the fall of 1941, and in December married a girl from Goshen, Connecticut, ten miles from Bantam. They are one of the four couples who honeymooned in the new defense homes project in Bantam. Alec Wasdo began work at Warren McArthur at the same time as Randall, but he drives to work from his former home in Waterbury. Wasdo was formerly a bartender, with no previous experience at factory work. He's already decided he prefers it to tending bar
