Operation Sea-Spray

And, you know, the historical precedent, and this doesn't even have to be me providing any kind of conjecture, right? We have documented history, U.S.

government history of, you know, Operation LAC, Operation Seaspray, where, you know, individuals were sprayed with certain intoxicants, you know, uh, LSD was one of them, you know, MK ultra and those kind of, um, and especially the kind of terrain around here that replicates that East Asian environment that they were fighting wars in, um, kind of lends you to believe that, you know, if they were really trying to figure out, um, the way a chemical dispersant works, this would be a great environment to kind of replicate that in regards to the efforts that they had going on then.

So am I necessarily going to come out and say that I think that the government tested on the city of Point Pleasant? Probably not.

No.

Now, I'll mention that the true origins of that beetle's presence is still debated to this very day, with neither side admitting to anything, but similar instances were happening domestically here in America as well.

[whoosh] For instance, in Operation Sea Spray, conducted in the 1950s, the US Navy used one of their ships that was along the coast of San Francisco to spray two types of bacteria into the air.

This was done to assess San Francisco's vulnerability to a potential bioweapon attack by an enemy.

Declassified Army reports later indicated that the samples they took at 43 different sites, it showed that these organisms had actually spread through the city and into the nearby suburbs.

Let me start out by checking my notes here.

Operation Sea-Spray, I know you've covered this before.

1950, US Navy, it was a biological warfare experiment where they sprayed the population of the Bay Area of California with a, uh, i- i- clouds of a, uh, bacterial cloud to find out how it would spread, and it spread 25 miles inland.

And this was, uh, what, from September 20th to 27th in 1950.

Let me start out by checking my notes here.

It did not solve the question of consent.

In 1950, Operation Sea-Spray exposed San Francisco to bacteria in a Navy experiment.

The residents were not asked whether their city should become a test environment.

Our earlier broadcast examined that event in detail.

So in a bioweapon standpoint, the most effective is one that you can just spread through the air.

And so I learned about the, um, the Navy using Operation Sea-Spray, where they, they sprayed offshore, off the coast of San- San Francisco, chemicals that infected, you know, 50,000 people back in the, I think it was the late '50s and '60s.

So these people were impacted by a chemical to see how they could use this for warfare.

And so it's, this is not a new concept.

Other independent lab testing, I don't know if many of you remember, a couple years ago there was a very mysterious fog that rolled through Florida and people's pets died within hours or the days after from that exposure.

That was also sent off to different independent labs and they found the same bacteria that was used in the 1950s Operation Sea Spray over San Francisco.

So air quality testing, stricter regulations all need to be pushed at both the state and the federal level.

But what we're also seeing is the fallout, again, from jet fuel additives and jet fuel emissions and byproducts of airplanes within the commercial aviation industry.

Yes.

The government history and the studies that they perform on populations like Operation Sea-Spray, where they're-

Yes

... dropping shit from the sky on certain, you know, town or whatever to see if-

We're gonna do an episode on that one soon.

Oh.

Very similar to Operation Sea-Spray.

Um, they, uh, they're...

Okay, so we'll talk a little bit more about Florida and what happened there.
