Bio
Bernard Korth CDR (ret) SC USN
I worked with Harry in International Sales. We were responsible for different Machinery products. Harry was hard working and willing to travel anywhere at anytime to conduct a sale or respond to a customer's requirements. He had an excellent rapport with his customers. This, combined with his ability to sort out all the technical details of their requirements, usually resulted in a successful sale.
