When we got rid of them, there was always a rumor in the military that this arsenal was never returned to the U.S. but was stored up at CFB Alert in case we ever needed them.

In real life, I doubt we would have them, plus they'd be about 40 years old and we wouldn't have the equipment and training to use them.

But it made for some excellent drunken conversations in the mess.

We might have the components, which aren't that different from what you'd see used at a mine, precision triggers, precision shaped explosives, but I don't think we have the material or the means to shape it.
