To BY.{R.W. Bailey - Chief Engineer} From EH. EH3/LC28.10.18. 28th. Oct. 1918. X.3381 RE - AMERICAN CYLINDERS. We notice on your sheet BY17/P251018., that American cylinders are only being re-welded on the vertical seams. We consider it is essential that the welding round the valve bends should be gone over as well as the vertical seams. EH. | ||
