Dugway Proving Ground, Utah, Massive firing range that for 50 years was
the US Army testing ground for some of the most lethal, chemical,
biological and nuclear weapons ever made. A slope of mountains to
the east is pockmarked with hundreds of fortified bunkers storing
enough toxins to eradicate mankind. Ground water is fouled with
carcinogens. This was where the cold war was waged, not in battlefields
in foreign lands, but n factories, laboratories and testing
ranges." - Tony Freemantle, Houston Chronicle
"Dugway played a crucial role in the New deal's last great public works
project: the incineration of cities in eastern Germany and JapanAs the
devil's own laboratory for three generations of U.S, chemical,
incendiary, and biological weapons, it has always been shrouded in
official secrecy and Cold war myth." Mike Davis, "Berlin's Skeleton in
Utah's Closet," Grand Street 69.
