The Completed Bunker for Power Generators 581st Signal RR Co. on Hill 1157 in Korea, 1951
(Future Beason Site)

32. Completed Bunker for Power Generators

Here you can see the final completion of the power bunker I built. In the background you can see the house I had built. I just seemed to be the one who did most of the construction, I guess because I liked the work and perhaps others didn't. They were all doing other things they were good at. I was not always aware of what all was going on. Each man did his own work and there was lots of it to do. In these descriptions I am featuring the things I did and I was not completely aware of all the things that everyone was doing. It took the combined effort of everybody to make the station a success. In my opinion each man do their utmost to get what needed to be done to succeed.

The radio shack is up to the right out of sight. You can see the power cable feeding the electric current to the station. This side of the hill is a gradual slope and the other side over the hill is a rather steep cliff. We kept a sharp eye out for anyone who would approach the station. When they got within a mile of us we would fire over their head. If they didn't run away we considered they were the enemy and shot to scare them. After that we shot to kill.
