Stark' Abstract.— This is a compilation of tularemia research conducted in Utah, particularly at U.S. Army Dugway Proving Ground (DPG), Utah, and an evaluation of this information in relation to the current status of tularemia studies. A brief history of tularemia in Utah and a review of field and laboratory studies are included. Human cases of tularemia occur throughout Utah during all seasons of the year. An analysis of recent human disease reveals a concentration of cases in rural areas, with a greater seasonal occurrence in late summer and early fall.

  • US Army Has Admitted to Conducting 100S of Germ Warfare Tests on Americans
    US Army Has Admitted to Conducting 100s of Germ Warfare Tests On Americans The U.S. Army has admitted that it secretly conducted at least 239 germ warfare tests in locations across the country, targeting unsuspecting Americans. By Rachel Blevins, April 28, 2018 https://thefreethoughtproject.com/army-admitted-conducting-hundreds-germ-warfare-tests- americans/ While the United States government claims to be horrified every time there are reports of a chemical attack that was allegedly carried out by the Syrian government, history serves as a reminder that the U.S. is responsible for carrying out a number of chemical attacks on thousands of unsuspecting Americans, and some of the innocent victims are still suffering from the effects today. In 1977, the U.S. Army admitted that it secretly conducted at least 239 germ warfare tests in the open air in cities across the country between 1949 and 1969. The areas where the lethal germs were simulated on the public were typically in major cities such as Washington D.C., San Francisco, New York City, Key West and Panama City, according to a report the Army submitted to the Senate Health Subcommittee. In the report, the Army insisted that the purpose of the tests was to study how biological warfare affects the public, in case it needs to defend against it. Calling tests “essential,” the Army claimed it needed to “substantiate theories and fill knowledge gaps and to determine vulnerability to attack.” According to a report from the Washington Post, the release of the Army’s censored report was “the most complete official version of this nation’s biological warfare effort,” and it revealed that in addition to public areas, military personnel and their families were also targeted: “The Army listed 27 times that it tested simulated toxins on public property, including releasing spores in two tunnels on a stretch of Pennsylvania Turnpike.

  • The University of Utah Campus Master Plan
    THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH CAMPUS MASTER PLAN 3. Discovery CHAPTER 3: DISCOVERY & ANALYSIS Introduction During the Discovery and Analysis phase of this pro- cess the University’s current physical campus structure, buildings, infrastructure systems, transportation and transit use, housing needs and academic space assess- ment were examined. It was the goal of this phase of the work to gain as much understanding regarding the campus’ existing conditions and operations as possible in order to glean the major planning issues that needed to be addressed in a comprehensive campus master plan. The documentation of the analysis phase of discovery is presented in one of three sections of this overall document. The analysis that can simply be reported and those recommendations that can be outlined in a summary fashion for further implementation strategies that will be discussed later in the book. The analysis is presented in this chapter. When the analysis and information gathering defines a very specific problem or issue that has been addressed by the Plan, this document presents that analysis and observational material in the “Plan Elements” or “Transformative Projects” chapters. This chapter orga- nization allows these issues and recommendation to be more closely tied. This decision also serves to minimize redundant information, which in a campus planning project of this size and complexity, would only serve to frustrate the reader. 3 – 2 THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH CAMPUS MASTER PLAN The University of Utah 2008 (view east) 3 – 3 CHAPTER 3: DISCOVERY & ANALYSIS Campus Setting Wasatch Mountain Range Regional Context The product of 20 million years of The 1500-acre University of Utah campus is dramatical- The eastern and northern portions of the City are locat- geologic faulting, volcanic activity, and ly located at the foothills of a mountain valley with the ed on a series of terraces, or former beaches, which are glaciation, the Wasatch Mountains, the Wasatch Mountains to the east and north.

    ANNUAL REPORT 1971-1972 The Judge Advocate General's School U. S. Army Charlottesville, Virginia 22901 . , SHOULDER SLEEVE INSIGNIA APPROVED FOR JAG SCHOOL Under the provisions of paragraphs 14-16, AR 670-5, the Com­ mandant received approval on 21 January 1972 for a shoulder sleeve insignia for uniform wear by Staff, Faculty, and Advanced Class personnel of The Judge Advocate General's School from the Chief of Heraldry, Institute of Heraldry, U.S. Army. The patch design is adapted from the School's distinctive crest. It is em­ blazoned across a shield of traditional blue. Its lighted torch symbolizes the illumination of intellect and leadership supplied by the School. The torch is surmounted by a gold open laurel wreath, below a gold sword and pen, with points downward, the tip ends of the wreath passing under the sword blade and pen quill FOREWORD The Judge Advocate General's School soon begins its twenty­ second year on the Grounds of the University of Virginia. In these years "the Home of the Military Lawyer" has consistently sought to serve the Army Lawyer in the field-by preparing him in our resident courses, keeping him supplied with the most recent legal information in a clear and concise form, and providing good quality continuing legal education programs both in the resident short courses and in our nonresident extension courses. But our active lawyer is only one part of our Corps and the School has likewise become the home for the lawyers in the Army Reserve and the Army and Air National Guard-the other two vital parts of our Army.

The Research, Development and Engineering Command located the record, US Army Activity in the U.S. Biological Warfare Program, 1942-1977s, Volume 1. 25 February 1977. I enclosed a redacted version of the record. Additionally, we located an excerpt from the book Clouds of Secrecy, The Army’s Germ Warfare Tests over Populated Areas, written by Leonard A. Cole. Mr. Cole’s book is available to the general public on the open market. The redacted record was subject to FOIA exemption (b)(2) HIGH. Exemption (b)(2) HIGH protects substantial internal matters where disclosure would risk circumvention of a legal requirement. Additionally, the redacted information is sensitive to internal Army operations. Mr. Brian May, Research, Development and Engineering Command’s Freedom of Information Act Officer, conducted a brief search of the Defense Technical Information Center secure library and determined additional records may exist. If you seek additional information on this subject, I suggest you submit a Freedom of Information Act request with the Defense Technical Information Center using the title of the enclosed record.
