The Sniper's nest ergonomics.

[Charles Collins]

I have been trying to find the dimensions of the boxes in the sniper's nest in order to create a mock up for evaluation of the ergonomics in the nest. The following is from WC testimony of Studebaker. Does anyone know the dimensions of the boxes or where I can find them? Also I would like to know the height of the window sill above the floor. Thanks.

Mr. BALL. Do you have the measurements of the boxes?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Yes, I have all the measurements.
Mr. BALL. Where?
Mr. STUDEBAKER. Down at the city hall.

The measuring stick appears to have each unit being 1/10 of a foot instead of inches. Do you know if this is true or not?

It's a surveyor's measuring stick and each foot is metricized.

Wondering what the object on the floor is. Seems like a light bulb or a stubby screwdriver.

I believe that it is a flashbulb from one of the cameras that were up there at that time. They were one-time use bulbs and trash after they were used.
