Narrative

EE was in the pep screen chute. As he was climbing down the chute, a strong gust of wind came up through the chute and blew sand under his safety glasses and into his right eye. The sand entered his right eye and he was not able to flush all of it out with water. The decision was then made to go to US Healthworks to have his eye flushed.
