Flag It!
Dear Editor,
We had trouble in our motor pool with drivers backing into the rollaway
toolboxes in the bays± That damaged the boxes and scattered the tools
on the floor±
We made the boxes more visible with a flag that sticks up four feet above
the box± Construct the flag with any kind of lightweight rod and a brightly-
colored rag or streamer and fasten it to the back of the toolbox± Drivers
can now easily spot the flag before they back over the toolbox±

That±s an idea we can salute²
Drivers should, of course, always use
ground guides when backing²
