Dugway Proving Ground, an army testing facility in Tooele County, is reportedly on lockdown. The facility was put on lockdown since 5:25 p.m. Wednesday, though neither Army nor county officials have given any further information. Dugway, which the Army calls "the nation's premiere chemical/biological proving ground," serves as a test facility for biological and chemical weapon defense systems as well as for Army Reserve and National Guard maneuver training.

He will catch crap but tough. I think he did the right thing.

Status: offline 		I don't see the issue with this.  It's exactly what is supposed to happen any time something can not be accounted for in inventory that should be able to be physically counted.  The same holds true for weapons if they can't be accounted for and certain forms of intelligence equipment.   You don't let people off of the base until it's been physically verified.  The alternative being letting people out of the gate and loosing any attempt to control accountability.  Which would you prefer?

We don't.

Dugway is one of the last.
