14-6  Bryant H. Barrett


B.H., as he was known, moved his wife and son to Oklahoma to be close to his daughter. She had married her fiancé, a returning combat infantryman, who wanted to complete his collage degree at Oklahoma A&M.  B.H. lived in Edmond and worked out of the Oklahoma City electrical union until about a year before he succumbed to prostate cancer in 1974, a few days after his 50th wedding anniversary. 

 Story

He was called to work in an area where he saw his daughter working at a gaseous diffusion console. Secrecy was so instilled in them that they would not openly acknowledge seeing one another. They were not to tell anyone where they worked or what their jobs entailed.
