August 7, 2008, Boston Globe Photographer Matthew J. Lee went to the site of the former General Dynamics shipyard on the Fore River in Quincy, Mass. where a few weeks earlier a team of engineers and ironworkers had started dismantling the "Goliath Crane". He was getting his group shot together as I was passing by: I asked him if I could shoot a couple, too. Front and center in a yellow T-shirt was 28 year old ironworker Robert Harvey, who would be killed exactly one week later when one of the crane's legs collapsed. The photo appeared in the Globe the next day.
