| We carried C-rations with us for our noon meals. Norm Simons, on the left, is the crew chief. Beans and wieners was one of my favorites. |

| Here is Jerome getting a fire started to warm up some C-rations. |

| LeRoy Hawco, our speeder operator, and Howard Mangold getting ready to fire up a cold speeder. . |

| Here the crew is digging out the side track so the speeder can get up this slight grade to the main line which is to the right of this photo. |

| At Pepperrell AFB the crew is using the line truck to load poles on a pole trailer to take to the job west of St. Johns. |
| On Saturday evenings we would go down to the Airman Club and have a few beers. Of course we had to check out the good looking Newfie girls. |

| In the winter of 1952 some poles near Whitbourne were blown over from a bad storm. Here the crews have stopped at the Jockey Club for a late supper. M/Sgt. Annibal's Hudson car is parked in the background. Note the load of poles and one speeder to reach the downed poles along the railroad track. |


| Jerome with a hack saw cutting off an anchor bolt that was too long. The other end of the bolt has an eye for the steel strand to go through that is hanging on Jerome's belt. |
| "Frenchy" Boldue on the pole doing a transfer. He was from Montana. Ben Craft is on the ground completing a dead-man anchor hole. Hole digging in Newfoundland wasn't the best. Lots of rocks and swampy ground. |
