About the Turtles
The Turtle Creed
Turtles are bright eyed, bushy tailed, fearless and unafraid folk with a fighter pilot attitude. They think clean, have fun a lot, and recognize the fact that you never get any place worthwhile in life unless you stick your neck out.
The "Turtles" are indeed an illustrious group and include in their membership ranks some of the country's foremost leaders in the fields of government, finance, entertainment, aerospace and all other areas where aggressiveness, a feeling for fair play, clean thoughts and a sense of humor are keys to success.
Turtle History
Dreamed
up by test pilots during World War II, the International Association of
Turtles was an exclusive organization that became quite popular in
the 1960's while the Apollo team was trying to 'maintain an
even strain' and beat the Russians to the moon.
Membership was diligently sought after and highly esteemed by
those lucky enough to be initiated. Adherence to the creed
and always giving the password when asked "Are you a
turtle?" are the only responsibilities placed on the
membership. Life was much more fun and took on a new meaning
if you were a Turtle where aggressiveness, a feeling for
fair play, clean thoughts and a sense of humor were keys to
success. The Association believes that you never get
anywhere in life without sticking your neck out.
Having no dues and a very small initiation fee, the Turtles simply ask members to go out and recruit new candidates. After their initiation, new members are presented with a lifetime membership card and a turtle lapel pin, the emblem of the organization.
