HELP SAVE The GAF POWER PLANT

Please help save the GAF Power Plant, which put out power for 116 years from 1868 to 1984 and supported the major industries in Gloucester City, including Pusey and Jones and the New York Shipbuilding Company.

Between them, they produced many great ships, including in 1911 the USS Arkansas, the oldest attack battleship in WWII.

Also, the USS Indianapolis, the last ship sunk in WWII, which also delivered the atomic bomb to the Enola Gay.

Also, the USS Savanna in 1958, the first nuclear powered cruiser ship, and the USS Kitty Hawk in 1963, which is still in the Navy today.

The power plant also helped to fuel the paper industry and the smokestack industry along the Delaware River waterfront.

To help save the GAF Power Plant, write to Norman Hill at 14 A North Sussex St., Gloucester City, NJ 08030.

Thanks for your support.
