On Oct. 20, a group of Defense Contract Management Agency Lockheed Martin Marietta and Lockheed Martin Marietta employees gathered to retire the Air Force’s 60-ton railroad switch engine 1248. The engine was donated to Kirby Family Farm, which provides educational programs for at-risk and special needs children located near Williston, Florida. Participants in the ceremony included Jim Johnson, Air Force Col. Sheri Bennington, Leonard Rishell, Daryl Kirby and Gary Allison from Kirby Family Farm. Rishell and Kirby exchanged handshakes and the red key to the switch engine at the end of the event. (Lockheed Martin photo by Todd McQueen)
