American Brass Co Earns Army-Navy E Flags for All Plants
The American Brass Company reports all ten U.S. plants have earned Army-Navy E flags for wartime production. Connecticut plants were among the first to receive the award, with total production tripling since 1939 and most output devoted to war materials. Cooperation between management and labor aided rapid wartime conversion and training. The company also operates plants for the U.S. and Canadian governments, including Anaconda American Brass Ltd. and Canadian subsidiary facilities.
