My brother, JD Mitchell took a course at the heavy equipment school in Okeechobee in 1960 and 1961. First, he took a paper course, qualified for the hands-on course, then launched his career as a Catskinner. What equipment would he have learned during those years? Thanks Adora Mitchell Bayles I am writing my autobiography, which will be read by thousands. Your school will get advertised in the narrative.
