Why do we continually bait and taunt each other over this?
The strike's actual history is well documented, and while having personally experienced those days, I know of equal heroes on both sides. . . . However I also know of a few overzealous Polar Indians that had become an embarrassment to the fraternity (one idiot in his crazed zeal actually came very close to getting himself fired).
Most likely a few "Indians" also populate Atlas Air as well (only the Atlas folk know who they are), so in knowing this, when will this strike issue finally become a dead horse??
I believe that the rank and file of both sides understood their limits on what needed to be done. Those that did not, soon learned.
. . .and about ex MEC Chair Robert Fell . . . . if true . . . what an embarrassment in the highs and lows of the Polar MEC!
