Fort Detrick at 15 Years Old Promotes Open House
The Frederick area observes Fort Detrick turning 15 with an annual payroll near 11 million dollars. Major General Wiliam Creasy defines BW concepts as the Army shapes offensive and defensive measures while the post runs pilot plants and agent munitions systems. Colonel Donald Grothaus leads 1957 onward with a strong community relations program praised by Army officials and local media. An Armed Forces Day open house on May 17 invites public tours and demonstrations of weapons and research achievements.
