My husband for one has worked for this company for nearly 20 years, the difference being that he now works in Pensacola instead of Mobile. Check them out, maybe ask for a tour, but please don't begrudge good jobs with good pay and benefits. If it takes grants to make this happen, then well and good. Oh, those 2 small buildings you wrote of are actually 1 huge hanger that fits 4 Boeing 757s. These are commercial size aircraft, hardly what anyone would call small.

Oftentimes, those that initiate these multi-year projects aren’t in office for the ribbon cutting. A lot of credit goes to Mayor Hayward and many other unsung heroes at the local and federal level.

Plenty of construction jobs with all the building of new (affordable??) housing all around the area yet those frequently end when the structure is complete. Would be GREAT to know we had jobs here where generations of families could be employed and do Great things for the United States and Escambia County.

Why it is so difficult for the county government to realize we need better paying jobs in this area? If Mr. Underhill wants to pave sidewalks then we need the tax revenue from these jobs.
