Granite Thunder 2004
NEW BOSTON AIR FORCE STATION, N.H. -- A firefighter from nearby Bedford starts decontaminating a fellow firefighter exposed to a "chemical agent" during an exercise here May 15. The exercise, called Granite Thunder 2004, encompassed more than 20 local, state and federal agencies responding to a simulated terrorist attack that combined explosives with chemical agents.
