CHEMICAL WARFARE

Military Article Photocopies available from Military/Info

Important: Until further notice, we are not shipping any item under our "Chemical Warfare" subject heading (except under the subheadings of defense, decontamination and medical aspects), because of the National Tragedy.(09/11/01)

We have to do this at least until things sort themselves out (09/11/01).
We have now changed from our first position on not shipping any items under our "Chemical Warfare" subject heading to that of shipping items under only some of the subheadings of that subject. Because, after carefully reviewing our position, we feel that it is not correct to deny the American public access to the information which we have available on the defensive aspects of chemical warfare (01/01/02).
