Ahhh the dreaded elevator work cage. I hated that damn thing.

When I was a Missile Maintenance Officer (Mechanical Branch Chief) at Grand Forks I used to dispatch in my truck with either a cage or a pipe pusher. One of my MMT troops got stuck in the cage down in Mike Flight while I was up in Bravo. Poor guy couldn't get rescued until I got down there with the spare cage.

My favorite pastime was battery spill cleanup. Also on the lower floor to the left was something we called the PCB door. We had to open that door, go in there and wipe up the PCB’s that were dripping from the electronics. I’m surprised after almost 35 years I haven’t gotten cancer yet.

Good times. How did you guys do when 4th came out to test y’all?
