That’s probably all the bodies they FOUND.

After seeing the cars, I’ll bet any human remains are only ashes now.

True, that might be like 104 known dead, 500+ unaccounted for

There was a similar blast in 1944 in the SF Bay Area, near Richmond at Port Chicago. It was equivalent to a small nuclear blast, obliterating everything in the area including much of the nearby town. 320 sailors on two ships at dock were killed, with only 50 sailors remains identified; the rest was obliterated. The blast was attributed to careless handling of munitions. However, some (as in this link) think it may have actually been a nuclear blast. Article goes on to say the U.S. military had 74kg of U-235 as of late 1943, enough for 5 bombs. 15.5kg was required for the Hiroshima bomb. Specs for the bomb were completed in early 1944 and three bombs were ordered made in March 1944. This info was declassified recently. Whether a Hiroshima type bomb was being transported by ship from Port Chicago is anyones guess, even more unlikely that one detonated. Anyway, the Port Chicago blast was horrific!

Look at the three intact VWs in the middle of this row.

Having worked with munitions for years, I have always been fascinated by the seemingly random "saves." There are always things that just don't add up, but then again, this whole story makes not sense.

This reporter is quite brave facing both the state and the dangers of the situation. Amazing photos--makes you wonder what was lost in the ones the police deleted.
