FORT BLISS ? Maj. Joe Buccino, Public Affairs Officer, Fort Bliss, admitted to the press that radioactive material was indeed stored in the ?remote access building? in the 1950?s and 60?s. The bunker?rests?above-ground at Biggs Airfield.?

A?recent investigation found that?in 1966, the Air Force transferred the bunker to the Army without informing them the bunker possessed nuclear materials. Somehow the materials were lost in the loop.

Astonishingly it was also admitted that the bunker served as storage to rifles and weapons used periodically by soldiers, signifying that likely soldiers have been contaminated with radioactive particles.

About 30 people who work in the bunker are being tested for radiation exposure.

At this time it is unknown how the military will DECON (decontaminate) the bunker facility.

Tests are pending to confirm if uranium is present in the bunker.

A retired Air Force veteran recently came forth describing what he knew about the bunker during his employment with the Air Force in the 1950?s and 60?s. An interagency team will continue to investigate.
