Beginning in the 1940's the U.S. Army stored chemical weapons at the Bluegrass Army Depot near Richmond. At the order of Congress and in compliance with the international Chemical Weapons Convention, the materials at the site are slated for destruction.
On this week's show, we'll get an update on the process and the progress at the Bluegrass Army Depot. Your questions, comments and stories are welcome at: wekueasternstandard@gmail.com.
