I was trained as a Hazmat Level 5 tech and CBRN qualified prior to 9/11, while at T3BL, JBMDL, NJARNG. After I was deployed a few times as an WMD and IED instructor to NATO Forces and to African Union Nations for the U S State Dept. Attached to AFRICOM. So yes I do know and remember. Are you aware an American wanted to continue with the cloud seeding idea? And that the globalists and climate propagandists are behind him?CPL Patrick Rasmussen
