1969 Johnson Area Service Managers and Their Territories - DL-192

In May 1969, Johnson Motors announced three area service managers: Guy Lynn for Oregon, Washington and Alaska; Ben Sentieri for New England; and J. “Cush” Milano as Jim Bergendahl’s replacement. The original two-page national territory map identifies ten managers with photographs and assigned regions.

SUBJECT: AREA SERVICE MANAGERS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE TERRITORIES

Gentlemen:

It pleases us to announce at this time the following personnel increase to our field service force. Two additional Area Service Managers, recently added, are Guy Lynn and Ben Sentieri. The other new face on the map, in Texas, is J. "Cush" Milano, the very capable replacement for Jim Bergendahl.

Guy Lynn will cover Oregon, Washington and Alaska, from his Seattle area residence. Guy, a former Service Manager of Outboard Marine International in Nassau, was most recently an instructor at the Outboard Marine Service Center in Miami. Guy’s vast product knowledge in both sales and service will make him a natural asset to you and Johnson Motors.

Ben Sentieri has been assigned to the New England area, and will reside in upstate New York. Ben for the past two years has been in very close association with all products working here in the Service Department. Prior to that time, Ben worked in our Engineering Department. With background like his, Ben will do a great job of assisting you and Johnson Motors.

Cush Milano, Jim Bergendahl’s replacement, is a former fifteen year AA Servicing Johnson Dealer. Cush in his former dealership wore two hats, both Sales and Service. We can assure you he is going to be of valuable assistance to both of us.

These three new Area Service Managers are flanked by our veteran field force comprised of Leigh Clayton, Lister Goble, Ralph Heck, Walt McCleod, Harold McCune, Vern Schneider, Braxton Slappey and Jack Tinney. The map on the inside pages will better acquaint you with these gentlemen and their respective territories.

Sincerely,

Original Johnson Motors signed J. R. Penland, Service Promotion Manager
