Edison Pioneers
Edison Pioneers var en gruppe tidligere ansatte og andre assosiert med Thomas Edison.
Den 11. februar 1918 møttes disse Edison Pioneers for første gang på Edisons 71-årsdag. Det var 37 menn tilstede på det første møtet.
Edison selv var ikke tilstede, det ble opplyst at han «was engaged in important government service».[1]
Man undret seg på om han arbeidet på et militært prosjekt siden første verdenskrig fortsatt pågikk.[1]
