#16. My son’s unit, 299th Army Engineers MRB, found new Soviet bloc chemical suits during patrolling operations east of Hindaya (on the east bank of the Euphrates River whose bridge they helped capture on 4/03/2002). After conducting Ribbon Bridge construction/similar to pontoons, for lighter vehicles, 299th soldiers went out and captured hundreds of surrendering regular Iraqi soldiers as well as to find and mark Iraqi weapons bunkers.

Found this tonight while looking at old files for a book I’m working on.

“Herald Sun” (Herald and Weekly Times”,1/27/03, “Poison warfare suits found in mosque raid”, by Leo Schlink in London (Australian paper - www.heraldsun.ews.com.au.

“British police investigating a terror plot by Islamic saboteurs have found chemical warfare protection suits in a north London mosque.

The discovery has shocked detectives, who believe the find confirms supporters of Osama Bin Land were planning a poison attack on civilian targets in Britain.

Scotland Yard and MI5 detectives had kept the discover of the nuclear, biological and chemical (NBC) suits secret.”

...

“The Finsbury Park mosque has a notorious reputation because of its use by radical Mulsim clerical Abu Hamza to preach holy war against Britain and the U.S.”

Do I detect a trend here folks?
