Americans did secret tests off Newfoundland

Placentia, Nfld. - The United States military conducted secret and confidential chemical and germ warfare experiments in Placentia Bay in 1965.

The Americans wanted to know if their warships were vulnerable to chemical attacks.

Jets from the American Air Force base in Stephenville repeatedly sprayed a U.S. destroyer in the bay with common bacteria and a potentially toxic compound, zinc cadmium sulfide.

At the time, it was thought to be safe, but recent studies have shown it can be absorbed through the lungs. Cadmium is poisonous.

The sailors on the ship were not wearing protective clothing and were never told anything.

Some of them said they now wonder if their present health problems are connected to their time in Newfoundland 36 years ago.
