Always used to go by this plant so that I might see a burn or something differnet. The National Guard is still using it however. Nearby we have a squadron of Ch-46's and they are contantly running exercises back there.
It has some very real problems there now as of last Monday. Seems that they found allot of WP R/G dating back during the Vietnam War. The Marines use to use them allot back during the 1965 year of Vietnam. Nearby at and old car salvage yard (This was a few years ago). They were removing some of the old Chevy's (1950's typed) back then when the uncovered quite a few of the "M-34 WP Hand Grenades. All of the grenade's foud out near there, probably were either hidden by the people working there or thrown over the fences to be picked up later that evening.


By the way, that question I asked about what they mostly often find is the MkII. II in between the in side plaster walls
