But the massive military build-up that spanned > nearly four decades left stockpiles of deadly weapons and chemicals. Now > U.S. Military Leaders are trying to mop up the mess left behind when the > Cold War crumbled.And more than 2 tons of one particularly dangerous > chemical has been stockpiled right here at the Redstone Arsenal. The Air > Force and Navy call it "the green dragon" because it burns with a deep green > flame when exposed to air. Its real name is pentaborane. It was common in > the 1950's as a high-speed jet fuel and for powering rockets and missiles. > It's taken about six months for Redstone to rid itself of the chemical. > Redstone officials used a state-of-the-art system called the "dragon slayer" > to weaken the the green dragon. The remote-controlled system uses high > pressure steam which army leaders say destroys pentaboranel. One Redstone > Arsenal spokesperson says the pentaborane they've destroyed here in > Huntsville is the last known government stockpile of the explosive fuel. > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Florence Gets New Weapon to Fight Crime > You may run from the police, but you can't hide. The Florence police > department has a new crime fighting weapon. And this new piece of equipment > even came at no cost to the city. And at no cost to train one of the > department's officers. That's thanks to a federal grant. Florence police is > now equipped with a hand-held thermal imaging device. It detects images > through heat sources whether it's a person or a car running. The device can > tell whether a car or house has any hidden compartments. A small space will > give off different heat compared to the rest of the house. And it can even > detect from the outside marijuana growing inside of a home. But the > department says the number one use for the device is officers' safety. This > is the first thermal imaging equipment the department has acquired. They've > looked into buying a device in the past. But the police chief found out at a > convention, the department could receive this thermal imaging device for > free. So they couldn't pass it up. > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > ========================================================================= > ...
