SNOW HILL -- The range at Langmaid Road will once again be playing
host to explosives testing. However, after the controversy surrounding
Hardwire last fall, the Worcester County Commissioners are being extra
sensitive to any concerns from nearby residents, especially in regards
to forewarning before the September tests.
“I think we should do more than we have done in the past,” said Commissioner Judy Boggs.
The commission agreed and has instructed Fire Marshall Jeff McMahon
to ask those hosting the course to notify all residents in the area
prior to testing.
Stretching for three days, the latest explosives course will be
taught by Dr. Kirk Yeagar, an expert with the
Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI). The tests will focus on the detonation of small
improvised explosive devices (IED) as well as several hours of response
training. The first two days of the testing will be for bomb technicians
and post-blast fire and explosive investigators.

They KNOW that hundreds of GI's are coming home with extensive knowledge of the construction and placement of IED's.

They (the armed agents of the governemnt are doing their best to prepare. Just as we, the people. are, at least the smart ones....The "if you're not doing anything wrong" crowd will just get killed. By both sides...
