Eight sentries are on constant guard against the poisoning of Fort Detrick's water supply. Each is 3 inches long.
Like canaries in a coal mine, baby bluegills swimming in clear plastic chambers are being carefully monitored for signs of contamination in the army base's drinking water.
Since October, the fish have been living in a white trailer next to the Monocacy River, near the water intake for Fort Detrick and its biological warfare defense laboratory.

I was wondering how they shouldered their rifles.
Look... Fish tracks..... Bawahahahahaha
Right, but oh those PETA types. Of course if the water is contaminated maybe the PETA types should be drinking it. I bet they say nothing about the little Blue Gills!
It seems to me that deliberate contamination would occur at the treatment plant itself or AFTER the water leaves the treatment plant, not before it actually GETS to the treatment plant....am I wrong?
Sounds fishy to me ! So they have little Lazy Boy chairs, miniature remotes and tiny Budweisers? Ill bet they never order in Sushi !
