The 20th Support Command Chemical Biological Radiological Nuclear and High-Yield Explosives Analytical Remediation Activity, also known as CARA-West resides at Pine Bluff Arsenal.

The unit, which is a tenant organization here at the Arsenal, has been on some varied and dangerous missions over the years. For example, in 2003, they were deployed for weapons of mass destruction elimination in Iraq; in 2006, they went to Taji, Iraq on a mission near one of Saddam Hussein’s chemical schools to deal with approximately 2, 400 empty liquid-fill rockets; and in 2008, they deployed on a mission called “The Dragon’s Egg” to Fallujah, Iraq to deal with a possible chemical situation involving a buried tank supposedly filled with mustard agent.

“That was a crazy one and a little scary at times,” said Hubanks, explaining that they had to build a camp out in the middle of the desert to protect themselves. “It was a lot of hard work. There was a lot of risk involved in this mission, so much so that the risk assessment I prepared had to be signed by Gen. (David Howell) Petraeus (Commanding General of the Multi-National Force-Iraq at that time) had to sign. This one scared everyone.”

If I could show you a connection between the Bush family of that time and this,

You already tried on the website I quoted........Like I said, you left out the Illuminati.....

With that being said, why haven't you brought Halliburton into your argument since they were the evil Overloards that your friends in the MSM hammered both Bush and Cheney on for eight straight years......

And not surprising, the name "Halliburton" has never once been mentioned since Obama was elected despite the fact that Halliburton is still there and doing what Halliburton has always done........

Such vehement hatred of Bush, which you appear to have, is what I would expect to see on every Democrap anti-Bush website on the internet.....

There ain't nothin' you can possibly contrive that would make me accept any anti-Bush propaganda you could come up with. If I wanted to see such crap then I'd drop over to DU..........

So shove it!

A canister of radioactive cesium is placed into a hazardous material container in a warehouse in Karbala on April 15, 2003, by an American soldier from a Technical Escort Unit, in order to be removed for later analysis.

Chicken. The "website you quoted" was copying a post on FR. So much for your research capabilities.

With that being said, why haven't you brought Halliburton into your argument since they were the evil Overloards that your friends in the MSM hammered both Bush and Cheney on for eight straight years......

Please explain how it is that, if I am such a rabid anti-Bush bot, that in 2000, I was doing research on the Florida elections and piping the data into Jeb Bush's campaign office.

Such vehement hatred of Bush, which you appear to have, is what I would expect to see on every Democrap anti-Bush website on the internet.....

Your opinion is apparently more important to you than reality.

There ain't nothin' you can possibly contrive that would make me accept any anti-Bush propaganda you could come up with. If I wanted to see such crap then I'd drop over to DU..........

Thought so. Your opinion isn't worth any more of my time.
