60 years of exceptional service
Website showcases Sandia’s impacts to the nation
On May 13,1949, President Harry S. Truman asked AT&T to take on management of what is now called Sandia National Laboratories. In his letter to AT&T President Leroy Wilson, Truman said, "In my opinion, you have here an opportunity to render an exceptional service in the national interest." To commemorate Sandia’s 60th anniversary, the Labs' Media Relations & Communications group has put together 60 notable contributions in a new website: “60 Ways Sandia Has Impacted the Nation.” Each contribution’s description is limited to two sentences so that readers, especially those with no technical background, can quickly grasp their significance.
