US Army Tests Bio-Weapons on US Citizens in '50s and '60s

It's no secret that the US government secretly tested biological and radiological weapons on its unsuspecting citizens, but I had never heard about these particular "tests" described in this video before I viewed it. Shocking, even by my jaded standards. You might be shocked too, unless you think secretly releasing bacteria in large US cities like New York and Washington D.C. is no big deal.

And as a native of Rochester, NY, USA, I'd like to add. Some of those radiological tests, conducted nationally, at that time? Were carried out right here, a good 20 years before I was born here.

Pregnant women were injected, without their knowledge, but with the knowledge of those injecting, with small doses of radiological material. Was big news here, as you can imagine.

ps. The voice narrating is Bill Kurtis, of A&E news fame.

And more recently, the first voice you hear, narrating 'Anchorman'. I have an uncanny ear for voices. srsly, ask berticus.
