Chemical tank eyed as new gas weapon in war
The Associated Press reports a new poison gas weapon, the chemical tank, a fast steel Caterpillar carrying lethal gases. Lt. Col. Augustin M. Prentiss says it can release dense, non-persistent gas to break through masks, possibly requiring a radically new gas mask. One tank with 1000 pounds of phosgene could affect a 500 by 100 yard area downwind and extend deadly concentration along nearly two-thirds of a mile. Europe moves to supply such tanks, among several gas instruments awaiting broader civilian protection.
