Research links military biology work to two deaths
Rep. Robert W. Kastenmeier says U S military research in biological warfare caused two deaths and 464 illnesses since 1950. He cites anthrax fatalities at Ft Detrick Maryland in 1951 and 1958 with officials at Ft Detrick not commenting yet. The statement supported a bill to reaffirm a no use policy for germ and gas weapons.
