On May 15, 1943, Pennsylvania Salt Manufacturing Company was awarded the coveted Army/Navy "E" pennant in an outdoor noontime ceremony, blessed with perfect weather. At the time, the company had been in operation in Tacoma for about 15 years. They stepped up production here to include chemicals needed for wartime. An unidentified man was pictured speaking to the audience while other dignitaries stand on the stage . (T.Times, 5/17/1943, p.16)
