The people who were responsible for marinating the infrastructure of H-3 were headquartered in the Civil Engineering building.  These carpenters, plumbers  electricians, masons and general handymen were mostly local Icelandic citizens who worked as civilian employees of the Air Force.  Foremost among these gentlemen was "Valdi".  Although he was a Icelandic citizen, you would never know it if you talked to him or went into his office.  You would swear you were talking to a native born Texas cowboy.  I am hoping to locate a picture of Valdi for this website but till I do, you will have to settle for a look at the CE workshop.
