Navy corpsman Doc McFee and navy nurse Pepper Jones take a look at the med station, plenty of space to take care of the wounded. The bunker next to the med station will be bunks and storage for the platoon.




Pfc Murray mans bunker machine gun nest on back side of the bunkhouse, keeping a eye out for trouble.
