There is a very good book on the study of chemical abd biological warfare, it is called Yellow Rain and is written by Sterling Seagrave.

I attended NBC school at Lejuenne. The instructor had a scar on his arm that he said was from a "sampling" of some concoction, I forget if it was a nerve agent or of the mustard gas variety. At the time I thought his sea story was interesting, but substantially full of something not the real deal. Maybe he got careless with a K-bar and was too embarressed to tell the real story behind the scar. After all, who'd willingly go through a chemical attack, even a small, controlled one.
Then, as my time in continued I started to hear the stories of the LSD 25 exercises. I guess if they'd send men into radiated territory why not give them a dose of good old nerve gas.
