Army has 3 Russian nuclear torpedos "leaking radiation?", and decide to fly them to Utah?2. C130 has a fire on board, and crash lands on a derelict Army landing field?3. And that Army base just happens to be loading a train of chemical weapons for a ride to Utah?And the nutcase blowing bridges waited five years to go to work?Stan Beattie
