While the Human experimentation in the United States list/article was an interesting read, not sure why it's referenced here, as it has nothing to do with this article. Deleting it. Hzoi (talk) 14:33, 18 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Not very accurate

As a contributing author of U.S. Military Operation Golden Python, and U.S. Military Operation Steel Box. As a U.S. Military Officer 59th Ordnance Brigade, USAREUR and SHAPE.

Operation Golden Python (ground movement, "Slithering" from the winding road from Site 59 Clausen to 270 then to Miesau (actually Rhine Ordnance Barracks Kaiserslautern "Railhead") was the safe and secure movement of the Chemical Munitions from the 59th Ordnance Brigade's Site 59, Clausen, Federal Republic of West Germany. Units involved were the 330th Ordnance Company (Chemical Munitions, Chemical Corps of the Ordnance Corps), Physical Security Military Police Company 110th, additional Medical Support (Chemical Munitions Exposure specific 98th Medical Detachment), Miesau Army Depot 9th Ordnance Company (Nuclear Munitions. and Subordinate Units 64th Military Police Company (Physical Security), 98th Transportation Company (Heavy, Panzer Kaserne Kaiserslautern), 41st Ordnance Company (Conventional Munitions, Rhine Ordnance Barracks Kaiserslautern) as Railhead (loading rail cars aka "box cars", blocking and bracing). Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Support was 20th EOD Detachment Kaiserslautern.

Operation Steel Box was the U.S. Navy's safe and secure movement of the Chemical Munitions in "Steel Boxes" the U.S. Ships being the steel boxes to Johnston Atoll (Island) to be completely incinerated at the newly built Facility. After the incinerations were completed (Demil, what we used to call Class III Decontamination, as hotter than the Sun) the Johnston Atoll Chemical Agent Disposal System (JACADS) Facility 2003 was fed into the incineration chamber until the incineration chamber was allowed to incinerate the incineration chamber into ashes.

Not all of the U.S. Chemical Munitions from the Federal Republic of West Germany went to Johnston Atoll (Island), some went to Dugway Proving Grounds. My involvement with the Iran Iraq Wars, U.S. Ally Iraq got Chemical Munitions from Sources, as they did not have the capability to make Chemical Munitions at that time 1980 to 1990, the Chemical Munitions U.S. Ally Iraq got were painted as U.S. Chemical Munitions Identification Colors (Gray, with yellow for HE "burster", and the U.S. color for the Chemical Agent, and NOT the U.S.S.R. Chemical Munitions Identification Colors). After the Iran Iraq Wars I showed U.S. Ally Iraq how to properly store the Chemical Munitions based on my Firsthand Experience with the 59th Ordnance Brigade's Site 59, Clausen, Federal Republic of West Germany, at the newly built U.S. Ally Iraqis Chemical Munitions Storage Facility at Khamisiyah, Iraq. 98.151.232.200 (talk) 04:06, 26 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]
