      Generations later, U.S. destroys its mustard gas

      Posted by Billbar from Reuters

      Only this month has the United States started to destroy the deadly mustard gas now outlawed by international treaty. The Army's Deseret Chemical Depot facility incinerates it at the well-guarded desert complex, which was home to 45 percent of the U.S. chemical weapons stockpile before destruction began a decade ago. Eight other U.S. sites stored chemical weapons and are also destroying bombs, missiles, mines and other chemical munitions.
