Honoring Our Members



     The IEEE was formed on 1 January 1963 through the merger of the Institute of Radio Engineers (IRE) and the American Institute of Electrical Engineers (AIEE)*.  So, 2012 is our 50th year, and the Hawaii Section of the IEEE would like to recognize all those who have been loyal members since the beginning.  Here is the of our distinguished members who have been with IEEE since the beginning:

Bakken, E
Balderston, Michael
Bennett, Forrest
Chong, Albert
Chun, Charles
Engelbardt, R

                            Help Create a First Hand History

     The IEEE History Center would also like to recognize all those who have been loyal members since the beginning.  It is creating a special collection of First Hand Histories submitted by these members.  If you are a 50 year member and would like to contribute a First Hand History, please see the First Hand History creation instructions.  Once your First Hand History is completed, we will mark your contribution with a graphic replica of the First 50 Year Member pin shown above.




*As a footnote I should add that the that the Hawaii Section predates the merger into the IEEE by many years as it was formed in 1950.
