16 Retractable Floor Hand Crank
Two soldiers cranking together could retract the floor of the entrance shown in the next two pages. This would prevent enemy forces from driving a train or explosives through the entrance door. They would fall a few feet into a pit and be stopped immediately before contacting the entrance door.
