Happy Thanksgiving


On behalf of the national executive board of our union and all AMO employees and staff, I extend warm wishes to all AMO members and families for a healthy and happy Thanksgiving holiday.

As members of AMO, we are thankful for our union's position of strength and the ongoing expansion of the AMO job base, creating new opportunities in these difficult economic times.

We are grateful for the dedication and professionalism exhibited by AMO members each day in their work in every trade - deep-sea, Great Lakes and inland waters. We understand and appreciate the sacrifices this work often requires, especially being away from home and family on such occasions.

Underway and ashore, we wish you all the best.

Tom Bethel
National President
