DP stands for Disaster Preparedness, and deals with everthing from shelter operations to analyzing attacks and their residual effects. I worked chemical, bio, and nucleur for the Air Force starting in 1978. (Retired in 1995) During Desert Storm, I was working with teams in Saudi and Kuwait, and later was in on some of the destruction of material in the desert using high explosives. Believe me, even as late as 1998 according to documents from the UN, they had chemical and bio, and a dormant nucleur program that hadn't been active since their efforts to buy cake from Africa in 1985. If you check back copies of Reuters, you'll find that late last year, traders were captured in the Iraqi desert with a number of pounds of uranium in possession heading toward Baghdad.
