Pine Bluff Chemical Arsenal Security Breach

Probing to see test our security or maybe nothing.

Seattlepi : WHITE HALL, Ark. -- The Army stepped up security at an arsenal where chemical weapons are stored after three people entered a restricted zone, officials said Wednesday.
The security measures were taken as a precaution at the Pine Bluff Arsenal after the intrusion at a forested federal preserve 30 miles south of Little Rock. Officials didn't know what the three people were doing there, spokeswoman Cheryl Avery said.

Worth watching.

1 This story has popped up a couple of times in obscure sources over the past few weeks. I have no idea what this is about.

2 You do know that we have members of our military whose job it is to breach security at these joints.

3 Yes I the only common thread I found was they were all vauge. Maybe someone testing our security. They tresspass and then obsereve the reaction to that or some drunk kids mudding and got off in the wrong area. If anyone see's the resolution before we do email me or one of the others ASAP.

4 Err uh add a please to that last request. Filthy: So how long would that target in your idea be allowed to go on before the revaltion and the bawling out part? Good point. Filthy has a pretty good sniffer on these things I think he may be correct. But I have seen reports as well that the enemy also does this to guage our security reaction. It will all come out in the wash I reckon.

5 I was over at Bayou Meto, which is pretty close to Pine Bluff, last weekend duckhunting and I can tell you that the locals think that potential terrorists are probing the security at the Pine Bluff Arsenal.

6 Down that way it could easily be a couple of off-season hunters - something to jaw about down at the local Dinner. Remember once long ago pulling guard duty on an isolated explosives point in Missouri. Got the hold security briefing spiel. Boring gig! But 2am - car with lights out off in the distance pulls behid some buildings - partner and I are armed, fired up and spooked! - commo's not working (typical). Partner is a nervous trigger happy dickmoron from Bumfuck Ohio (no offense). We carefully approach the vehicle ... I get up to the window - shine a flashlight n' point my M16 - two teen locals doing the horizontal bop in daddy's car - she screams - partner freaks n' accidentally fires round into ground (nearly shot himself in the foot!). Some night! Talk about interuptus!!! Anyway - they leave - I keep private spare rounds - for accountiblity purposes (ha ha) - n' document - nothing! n' smack Ohio Bob! few weeks later I hear "stories" - possible terrorists (White Supremist type), security breech, shots fired, they fled - all started by Ohio Bob. Senior NCO comes to me - whats up? - Nuthin'! Who ya gonna believe - smart guy like me from NY or dickhead Bob who likes his barracks room cause its bigger than his trailer back home! Senior NCO is PR from Jersey City - nuff said. Simple story - but this is how stories begin. Wouldn't be surprised if Ohio Bob was an aging square badge security guard there.

8 Rusty On all military facilities hunting is either not allowed or severely restricted - and the game do know this! Its a hunters paradise if you don't get caught. Watched a herd of whitetail waltz thru and munch out on a 45cal range - shut range down - popped of a couple of rounds to spook them off - they didn't flinch!

9 In answer to your question Howie, in the book "Rogue Warrior" the author describes how he left SEAL Team SIX, and was tasked with doing security intrusions into Naval bases, and other important facilities, as a team called "RED CELL" He said his team was able to breach one U.S Embassy that was later targetted for a bomb, and had warned about suspicious local activity and the possibility of it being a target of attack. I had never heard that before, I should imagine it would be covered-up and corrected, and not become a news story if possible? Some people question his stories though. I thought I'd throw it out there.

10 Hondo: White supremists are not terrorists.

11 I happened to be in St Louis on Friday and was able to read the Post Dispatch they report a guard thought hw say people but further investigation found nothing. However Security was increased as a precaution. Quote " whatever it was it was not human" So there you have it Aliens or wildlife the dogs got all happy and wanted to chase but did not indicate human was what they were smelliin.
