Fort McClellan use to be a Chemical, Nuclear, and Bio warfare training center back in the cold war days. Interesting
Yeah, and that area was and is loaded with military related facilities There's the Anniston Army Depot where most tanks and other tracked vehicles are repaired, and also a chemical weapons storage facility and incinerator.
Fort McClellan was also a POW camp during WWII. A lot went on there over the years. You can just scan this Wiki entry and see a good bit. It was also used as an area for Boy Scout Jamborees, a couple of which I attended there years ago.
Yes the “chemheads” as we called them were based their along with us MPs. Additionally directly across the hwy was Anniston Army depot where the US was incinerators for destroying our chemical weapons was located. I was stationed at FM from 98 till 99 with the 788 th. I bet the chemical weapons facilities are still present and that’s why they are sending people all the buildings are negative pressure containment systems whole buildings in addition to all the storage rooms.
sounds like a perfect place for quarantine. Lots of speciality buildngs far away from the perimeter fencing.
