On a Saturn V big daddy booster rocket made at Nasa Michoud Facility in New Orleans, LOUISIANA!
That's not entirely true. Michoud built the tanks and framework that held the propellant and oxidizer for the Saturn V rocket (Stage S-1C). The F-1 engines that powered the S-1C stage was built by Rocketdyne in Canoga Park, CA, under the technical direction from Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville.
And again, to be technically correct, that is not a "booster" rocket at all but a "STAGE" section of a larger rocket. Very different philosophy in design.
