I worked a bunch of towers. I was taking stuff up, like ID cards, and other things, and was letting stuff down all the time, like keys, and other things.
I was second officer for a time on Auburn's roof post which overlooked two yards. Since we couldn't leave, we'd have somebody bring us something from the officers' mess when all the inmates were locked in their cells. We used buckets on a rope. Also, from time to time I had to cover the gas booth in one of the messhalls there. Transferred out of there in '83, and went to work at a medium A prison. We only had one tower there, and that overlooked the front salleyport entrance, and vehicle entrance gates.
