    It is shown that every at most countable orthomodular lattice is embeddable into a three-generated orthomodular lattice. This yields that the free orthomodular lattice on countable many generators is a subalgebra of the free orthomodular lattice on three generators. This answers a question raised by G.\ Bruns in 1976, which is listed as Problem 15 in G. Kalmbach's book.
