IAM Local 1260 in New Holstein, WI honored union retirees at a banquet commemorating their 50 years of membership in the Machinists Union. Thirty-two members were recognized for their service and nine attended the event.

“Thank you to the men and women of IAM Local 1260 celebrating 50 years of IAM trade unionism,” said IAM Midwest Territory General Vice President Steve Galloway. “Your dedication to your union has been immeasurable.
