This has been known by more than a few residents since the mid 1940s.
But as usual, since the Hawaiians were deemed ignorant by mainstream mainlanders, the residents who knew decided not to push the issue at that time, since the military at that time was "all powerful".
Bunkers were obviously all over the island, supposedly for defense, but the bunkers that contained barrels of "military liquids" were transported and handled by only the local workers to the Koko Head bunkers.
The supervisors were always there also, but probably few and far between in case of a spillage.
Around the bunkers the vegetation began to die and the locals were curious, but nothing came forth from the military.
"Top secret", ya know.
This is outrageous to deny.
VX and Sarin? Where did it come from in the first place?
Why it was stored in Hawaii is easy. It was going to be used on Japan if necessary.
The testing in various sites in the state with so many civilians and soldiers "downwind" is the bitch.
How many have died, actively or passively from this secretive, obscene and bizarre method of testing?
Hell yes, we were at war, but this is pure crap by the military heads who ran the effort in the Pacific.
Pandora's Box on this one has just been cracked...
