Narrative

EE was about to walk down a flight of stairs in the preheater tower when his face shield (which was flipped up in a position parallel to the floor) caught on something. He slipped down several stairs, caught himself by getting his arm around the handrail. He strained his bicep muscle on right arm and had restrictions for several days.
