hosts, Freddie Kruger, vampires, Hannibal Lecter, witches and aliens.
All have filled the silver screen with frightful horrors. And we went to see them
for entertainment.
There are some frightening images, however, that we’d prefer not to see.
Name your equipment failure
nightmare. Each can become reality
when equipment isn’t maintained.
Preventive maintenance is the work
we do so we don’t have to view the
truly frightful, nor have the night-
mares that follow “accidents”—acci-
dents that PM could have avoided.
Save the
frightful for
the silver
screen. Use
PM and have
pleasant
dreams.
ah,
they’re
not so
scary.
An out-of-battery tank
cannon when an enemy
tank is zeroing in.
A Bradley hatch crashing
shut on a crew member’s
hand.
Brake failure on a
HEMTT headed down a
steep hill.
