Bio

Introduction:
I NOMINATE GARY MARTIN IN THE PIONEER CATEGORY. HIS SEAFARING CAREER SPANNED ALMOST 20 YEARS FROM THE EARLY 1960's to 1981. GARY STARTED OFF IN THE MESS HALL AND ROSE TO THE RANK OF FIRST ENGINEER WITH NATIONAL BULK CARRIERS. THESE YOUNG MEN LEFT THEIR TINY ISLAND HOME OF CAYMAN BRAC AS MERE TEENAGERS, AND SOMETIMES JOINED THEIR FIRST SHIP IN AS FAR AWAY PLACES AS JAPAN! IN MY HUMBLE OPINION, THIS WAS, IN AND OF ITSELF, AN EXCEPTIONAL CONTRIBUTION. THE MONTHLY 'ALLOTMENTS' (REMITTANCES) SUPPORTED FAMILES AND MOST DEFINITELY JUMP-STARTED THE ECONOMY OF THESE ISLANDS. I HOPE YOU WILL GIVE CONSIDERATION TO THIS NOMINATION.
