Noll Completes the Bunker for Power Generators

After we put the roof on I obtained some cement. It was not of good quality. We mixed it up and built a ledge about 2 feet high for the generators to sit on. At that time we had about 20 generators. Because of the carbon monoxide problem I had the Koreans take the ends out of some mortar shell casings and made a tube the full length of the shed so that the exhaust would be funneled out of the bunker. The heat generated kept the idle generators warm enough so you could start them in cold weather.

It also cut down the noise factor and was much more comfortable without all the noise. It all worked very well and was a big success. The proud engineer is standing here admiring the good hard work.
