About CBR. I was at Fort Benning in 1967 studying CBR. Your question and answer was in the Fort library. According to reports, General Eisenhower on his post war tours discovered vast underground storage areas full on Sarin and Tobin gas weapons. It was discovered that Hitler, upon Germany’s discovery of these new nerve gases, tasked his SS agents to discover if America had these weapons. The agents “scoured” all available public media in America and could find NO references to this type of discovery or any research into it. Thus Hitler surmised that if such a thing was “so secret” that there was no evidence of it anywhere his agents in America could find,then in his brilliance he decided that America “had” to have this weapon and if he were to use it, it would be turned against him. Thus, he did not use it. That was my first report to my Officer class. Of course, America did not use any of these weapons because we never even research or thought of using such weapons. Eisenhower was floored. regards
Re; America in WW II and poison gas.
We had none—TRUE.................BUT.............
What we DID have was a HUGE production capacity to make all that DDT that save so many lives at the end of the war.
The process to make the poison gas is so similar that you can use t he same factory and production line.
Hitler: crazy but NOT stupid. Plus, he was gassed in WWI and did not like it one bit.
Pretty sure the gases were called Sarin, Soman, and Tabun..
