Specifically, Burton has sent a subpoena to the secretary of the Navy seeking video and still camera shots of the Oklahoma City federal building on the day of the bombing, the Indianapolis Star newspaper reported Oct. 12."He has reason to suspect that the Office of Naval Intelligence or the Defense Intelligence Agency may have in their archives a photograph of John Doe 2 and convicted bomber Timothy McVeigh getting out of the Ryder truck before it blew up outside of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building," the paper said.
interesting that after more than 7 years, ONI all of a sudden surfaces in the murrah investigation. does anyone remember the navy being involved in any manner after the bombing?

I could be mistaken, but I'm sure a fellow Freeper might be able to do some digging and sourse the article dealing with the US navy, building a 5 story structure to common commercial building codes (not the more strict codes for Federal buildings), filling up a truck with MORE ANFO than T.M. was supposed to have used and detonate it.
I did blow out the windows and do some structural damage. The building, constructed to a lesser code, meaning it was not as strong, was left standing.
The only reason I remember this was at the time, I thought it was strange that the Navy would be doing this kind of testing.
