I never knew about “Little Pearl Harbor” until I ran across Suzi Marsh’s article. I do not know how I never heard about it in all the years since 1945. The coverup accounts for 14 years, but even after the facts came out in 1959 the coverup continued to do the job. I say that because of all the war movies produced about WWII not one was ever made about that day in Bari, Italy. I assume that Washington parasites told Hollywood parasites that not a penny of subsidy money could be used make a such a movie.
Later, Rhoads would go on to help establish the Sloan Kettering Institute for Cancer Research where, partially inspired by Alexander’s work, the first chemotherapy eventually took shape. Meanwhile, the lieutenant’s report on the Bari incident would not be made public until 1959. Even today, this chapter in history remains largely forgotten, although its legacy went on to save many lives.
After reading Ms. Marshall piece I would list December 2 as a date of infamy right next Dec 7. The death and suffering unleashed on that terrible day —— and long afterward —— is beyond comprehension to any decent man or woman.
I warn you. Read the article and look at photographs at your peril:
Had the Germans lashed out unexpectedly with a devastating chemical attack? Or was something even more sinister at play? The truth was so shocking that the leading Allied powers immediately moved to suppress it. And for more than 15 years, the report into what happened at “Little Pearl Harbor” remained classified. Eventually, the extent of the cover-up was revealed – along with a terrible secret that could have changed the course of the war.
