Matt Damon as a zombie |
Last year, on Halloween, over 200 people took part in a “zombie”
apocalypse mock disaster drill, fully outfitted in realistic zombie garb. The
drill took place in the Wesleyan University’s Selby Stadium, where victims
were hit by a make-believe chemical cloud that turned them into zombies. It’s
not hard to find volunteers for a zombie event, officials said. Hospital
response was also tested in the 2011 drill.
But what would happen if a future drill goes live?In fact, some of us believe “false flag” events have occurred for years.
But is there really an aerosol that can turn people into zombies?
Some would argue that “Devils Breath,” an extremely dangerous Columbian drug can do just that. Devil’s Breath is the street name for a drug that eliminates free will and can wipe out the memory of its victims. It is currently dealt on the streets of Colombia. The drug is called scopolamine, but is known on the street as ‘The Devil’s Breath.’ Devil’s Breath comes from a tree common to South America.
Police tell horror stories of how people were raped, forced to empty their bank accounts, and even coerced into giving up an organ of their body.
Scopolamine can be blown in the face of a passer-by on the street, and within minutes, that person is under the drug’s effect. It is odorless and tasteless. Victims can be guided wherever you want them go or do. Victims become like a child.
One gram of Scopolamine is similar to a gram of cocaine, but it can be lethal in high doses.
Devil’s beath turns people into complete zombies and blocks memories from forming. Even after the drug wears off, victims have no recollection as to what happened.
Devil’s breath is exactly the type of experimental compounds the CIA has been testing, under public law approved by Congress, and used on US citizens for years.
This year, on Halloween, another zombie drill took place in San Diego California. This time 1000 people participated.
The Zombie Training drill was organized for the US military by the Halo Corp. in conjunction with the CIA and Center for Disease Control (CDC). A former CIA director headed up the drill.
But what is the purpose of all of this?
The “Zombie Apocalypse” drill is a federal Center for Disease Control and Prevention campaign that attempts to get Americans ready for a zombie apocalypse event. The CDC even produced a catchy, public health message about the importance of emergency preparedness.
The Department of Homeland Security jumped on board last month, telling citizens if they prepare for a zombie attack, they’ll be ready for real-life disasters like hurricanes, pandemic viruses, earthquakes or a terrorist attack. A few suggestions were similar to a few of the 33 rules for dealing with zombies popularized in the 2009 movie called “Zombieland,” which included the rule to “always carry a change of underwear” and “when in doubt, know your way out.”
San Diego-based Halo Corp. founded by former military special ops and intelligence personnel hosts the event and as you already know, Hollywood has been hyping zombies for several years, effectively programming U.S. citizens to expect a Zombie type event.
Taps is played almost 20 times a day at Arlington National Cemetery? Taps may
be the most performed piece of music in America. It is played every day in
virtually every corner of the U.S. Taps is sounded at funerals, wreath-laying
ceremonies and memorial services.
Union General Daniel Butterfield changed the evening
signal music for his brigade in July 1862. Butterfield felt the music Lights
was too formal to signal day’s end. Butterfield and bugler Oliver Norton wrote
Taps while camping at Harrison’s Landing in Virginia following the Seven Days’
Battles during the Peninsula Campaign. Norton said General Butterfield showed
him some notes written in pencil on the back of an envelope and he asked Norton
to sound them on his bugle. Norton practiced this several times. General
Butterfield and Norton changed it somewhat, lengthening some notes and
shortening others, but retaining the melody as General Butterfield first gave it to Norton.General Butterfield directed Norton to sound Taps thereafter in place of Lights. The next day, buglers from neighboring brigades who heard Taps asked for copies of the music. Taps was gradually taken up through the Army of the Potomac said Norton. Interestingly, General Butterfield claimed he could not read or write music. Taps was first used at a funeral for Captain John C. Tidball, U.S. artillery officer who died in 1862 during the Peninsula Campaign. The first sounding of Taps is commemorated in a stained-glass window in the Chapel of the Centurion at Ft. Monroe, VA.
Berkeley Plantation, the site of Harrison’s Landing has a monument commemorating the creation of Taps.
Taps is still sounded every evening at military bases to signal that the day is finished, the notes of Taps have become part of our national conscience. Norton said quote “there is something singularly beautiful and appropriate in the music of this wonderful call. Its strains are melancholy, yet full of rest and peace. Its echoes linger in the heart long after its tones have ceased to vibrate in the air.” unquote
Taps is the military’s final salute to those who have given their full measure.
