[GreenKeys] Bell Labs - True Innovation

one thing about AUTOVON at Luke -   taking a nice  large  box  of  good  
candy   to the com center  for the  switchboard operators  always  helped   
with name  recognition  when you requested a line  too!  Not of the  
facilities I were in  had  direct access....  had to  go  though  switchboard!

I did not  get use of  AUTOVON until I was  at Luke  ...

operations  or  maint.  type of   school?

When I  was at tech school at Keesler they turned us on to how to use 
Autovon  
real quick.  Never paid for a call home.
