Ft. Detrick Biological Warfare Program 1950s Maryland US Army – In 1989, Ft Detrick biological diseases experts were called on by the Virginia Department of Health and Hygiene when a commercial laboratory animal holding facility in Reston, Virginia, experienced an outbreak of an Ebola virus in its primate population. The potentially devastating outbreak was quickly handled, preventing what health officials feared could have had a terrible effect on humans. Author Richard Preston chronicled in The Hot Zone the rapid and effective response by Ft. Detrick scientists and soldiers. This in turn sparked at least one major movie (Outbreak), which based its story on the basic scenario of the Ebola outbreak The US Army established its offensive Biological Warfare program at Fort Detrick in 1943. The purpose of the program was twofold: develop defensive mechanisms against biological attack and develop weapons with which the United States could respond in kind if attacked by an enemy who used biological weapons. The offensive Biological Warfare program remained at Fort Detrick until November 1969, when the United States formally renounced the use of lethal biological agents and weapons, and all other methods of biological warfare and discontinued these offensive programs.

@BrendanIsCool, I voluteered for the one and only project? during my time there, but they had to many volunteers and I was not chosen. They were working with sand fly fever and Tuleremia… I don’t recall which. I guess what they learned from this applied to anthrax and enabled a vaccine to be developed. From time to time I see other Whitecoat volunteers and no one has lasting problems as far a I know. My high shool boys dean did complain about some minor ailments resulting White Coats.
what were you infected with and have you any chronic ailments? I’m an infectious disease doctor and find? operation whitecoat particularly intriguing.
wow…….
brave new world, eh?
makes you wonder how they test the new stuff? on us….
i? live there lol
I? was in “Project Whitecoat” at Fort Detrich from 1972-1974 as the program was coming to an end. It is good to know something useful became of our being, or possibly being, a human ginnea pig. Things had changed from what this clip showed. I had no security clearance, and no mental evaluation and yet at night I had the keys to every hot suit (lab) in the USAMRIID building that contained every pathogen known to man. I recieved radio active shipments and had no training. The world has changed.
Cool.?
