Red tape blocks cots for guards at Fort Knox
Eighteen National Guard troopers stood bedless overnight due to red tape. Scout volunteers sourced iron cots from Firelands Camp after Civil Defense and Red Cross could not provide beds. Lt. Terry Woodings sought state and federal approval over 200 cots, while Mayor Oscar G Dunn called the effort ridiculous. The guards, to guard loaded trucks bound for Fort Knox, began duty Sunday seeking restless sleep.
