"By the bye, Clint, you mentioned that you were in the First Infantry in 1956 and in the Reserves in 1962."

I brought that up because you asked (rather condescendingly, I thought) "- ever heard of a certain period of the last century known as the 'Cold War'?"and you said "US and the USSR squared up to each other on a number of occasions." I thought it would lend more weight to my words when I told you that indeed I do know all that; I was around then.


"What training were you given in the storage, handling and arming of chemical or biological munitions. Can you remember what the colour codings were for US/NATO Chemical/Biological weapons?"

None. I was a radio operator in charge of a three-man communications group for a combat engineer company, and I don't remember a whole lot of technical details about that - that was nearly a half-century ago, and we were still using WWII commo equipment, like the notorious "Angry Nine" radio.

Now spring your trap.
