In an odd way, that could have been my last job in life -- lighting a fire in a drum like that. Different contents of the drum. My orders were to burn classified papers. This was espionage post right on the East German border. In case of war with the Soviets, it probably would have been the first thing hit -- we were that close. If we were lucky, we'd have a few seconds to live and to drop phosphorous grenades in the drums.
