NPRC Fire - NARA Fire in St Louis - 1973
#2

What a sad tale especially for those of us engaged in WWII research. With hindsight it is easy to say what a mistake it was to not include sprinklers in the original specification and build. Also the lack of attention to fire safety was a contributing factor.

The PDF made interesting reading and the fate of the pumper truck after 40 hours of continuous operation was something an ex RAF motor transport fitter well understood !
