Dr. Castleman are you aware of the following
Warren Bechtel's construction partner after WWII was John McCone John McCone apparently owned and operated California Shipyard during WWII in connection somehow with Todd Shipyards and Kaiser CalShip operated out of Terminal Island in LA now Berths 212 and 213 of the Port of Los Angeles They built numerous Liberty Ships One Liberty Ship website notes that Calship provided the first management
personnel to Marinship McCone was bought out in the 1950s and Bechtel Corp. was formed
This is important because California Shipbulding sent Edgar N. Goldstine to attend the US Maritime Commission meeting in Dec. 1942 where the hazards of exposing shipyard workers to asbestos were
discussed
