.Nuclear Cover-Up: Explosions, Military Helicopters Filmed Near  Blacked Out Radiation Zone

Eyewitnesses on the ground near the media-blacked-out  elevated radiation zone near the border of Indiana and Michigan, where  radiation levels hundreds of times higher than normal were quickly removed  from public viewing by the EPA, are now sending in a large number of photos  and videos documenting massive explosions accompanied by unmarked  helicopters, A-10 Thunderbolts, and military personnel. These  reports come after a Department of Homeland Security hazmat fleet was sent out  to the location after ‘years’ of inactivity.
Those on the ground report that the explosions are ‘loud and  deep’, sounding like fireworks with a kick. The explosions are  oftentimes followed up with a squadron of helicopters or other aircraft,  oftentimes black and unmarked. One Michigan resident reports  the following, and is then backed by dozens of organic comments which confirm  the findings:

“EXPLOSIONS EVERYWHERE! Also, Large helicopter heading away from Local Air  Force base flying toward scene of explosions! These explosions are  seriously consistant, loud booms for the last hour or more.”

After generating much interest, the poster was able to capture some of the  explosions on tape. While he would be the first to do so, many more videos began  to pop up recording both the explosions and the onset of military aircraft  flying through the area into the radiation zone. You can view the video below  and hear the explosions for yourself:

Further comments went on to document the increased presence of unmarked  choppers and strategic military aircraft. A number of photos have begun to  surface from eyewitnesses in the tri-state area of the event, reporting that the  helicopters and other crafts were traveling towards the center of the incident.  Some pictures are shown below:

Thousands of comments on articles, discussion  boards, and twitter posts are surfacing regarding this event. Explosions are  still reportedly being heard in rapid secession, often a large number over the  course of only a few seconds.

 HJmmmm... Terrorists practicing with "dirty bomb" material perhaps ?   Or perhaps HD practicing their reactions to a "dirty bomb"..

Alpena is no where near the Indiana state line

  How many of you mockers even tried to check out the story? Must be something happening. What?
 

 
My wife had some cousins living in Montpelier France. When Chernobyl melted down our news reported it. Their news only reported that all the grapes died and no one knows why. All her cousins in Montpelier died of cancer. Could be a nuclear accident. We are all suffering from fukushima fall out. If I lived in that area I would check it out and maybe take some precautions.

i checked out this story..
 there is no evidence , based on information thats credible.
alpena is no where near michigan city,
 south bend is east of chicago , but gary is alot closer..
  this is a case of piling up data and trying to make it fit where there is nothing talk about
 i monitor region 8 repeaters on 2 meter .. no ares, races, skywarn or anyone else has said, talked or broadcasted anything about this
theres nothing here

So can we finally put this nonsense to rest? Right off their web site:
http://www.radiationnetwork.com/Message.htm
 

Update: 6/7/12, 7:45 A.M: - False Alert:  The alert level reading last evening appears to be a false alertfrom an equipment malfunction.  Here is the station's report: "out of control readings on the GeigerGraph screen from about 11:30pm local time that occurred while sleeping. My apologies to all. I have no idea what caused this. Shut down GeigerGraph and restarted. Readings from the Geiger were in the normal range (the Geiger operates on A/C). All cable connections are tight and not loose. Am speculating between the GFI and USB Adapter and some sort of voltage spikes. The uninterruptable power supply UPS had lost power and had died - a tripped GFI. I am not going to leave the system running while not at home until I can determine and fix the problem." By the way, a handful of stations on the Radiation Network feed simultaneously to the Black Cat Systems network, which explains why a high reading was showing on their network at the same time.  But Black Cat works in uR/hr instead of CPM, so their radiation level was lower because of the conversion factor between units of measurement. Update: 6/6/12, 11:55 P.M. - Very high reading in South Bend, IN station this evening.   Reason unknown.  Station unresponsive to contact at this late hour.  Since this same station has triggered the Alert system before, which Alerts may have been false, and because his current readings do not appear to be corroborated by nearby stations, we have disabled his station for the time being.  Will report back when we know more.

Now that this has settled down a bit.  This is exactly why I have a geiger counter.  They are cheap, you can get one off ebay.  There is every possibility that any are may be hit with excessive radiation from a nuclear disaster, even one from a long way away.  It is equally likely that the residents of that area may be lied to.  Sorry, but I have no faith that my government (by the elite, of the elite and for the elite) has my best interest at heart and every reason to believe they would lie to me.  So, one must take care of ones self.  If there is a radiation spike, stay inside 'till the weather blows it away or hop in the car and try to go elsewhere.  All depends on how much there is, likely source, prevailing winds, etc.  Sure, a nuke incident may well be inescapable, but some are escapable.  If you only have internet rumors to go by, you have nothing.  If you have the tool, you can decide what, if anything, you can do.
 
  Now, if a member here was in that area and had a simple $50 hand held unit, this would have been laid to rest quickly.  Had it been a story about eastern CT, I'd have walked outside, taken a measurement, and got back to you. 
 
  Years ago, this nation took 'civil defense' seriously.  Geiger counters, fallout shelters, neighborhood civil defense co-ordinators were all part of normal society.  Now that's all seen as crazy talk.  Go on ebay and get yourself some vintage crazy talk gear and watch out for yourself.

Hey guys:  I have a neice who is a field organizer (baseball bat and all) for the ACLU.  Do you want me to ask her to investigate?  You will know there is really something going on up there if she cannot get into the area, but if she can get it then there is probably nothing going on.....
Whatcha think??

[Scibaer]

because there are 10000's of people already living over in alpena , and they are doing just fine.
there is no need to send anyone into alpena county, with all the tourists staying in hotels, making boat trips to mackinaw island, and visiting the fudge and pastie shops..we'd be seeing or hearing problems by now..

I hear a lot of the strange happenings up in that neck of the woods ended with the arrest of the Duvall brothers a few years ago.

Sigh....

Alpena has the military air station there.  A squadron of A-10's are stationed there.  Due to budget cuts most of the military bases in Michigan were closed.  To help keep the base open during all of the closures Alpena Air Station became a Law Enforcement training ground.  Complete with a miniture city, (read MOUT), for training EVERYONE.  It is used by the National Guard as well.

There are so many units, departments, agencies, that train there it would make your head spin.  There are booms and bangs and gun fire there constantly.  They train for HAZMAT, and Terrorist incidents etc. Heck I think they even train school janitors there now.

And how do I know this?  Because when I was an undercover narcotics officer in Michigan my office was on the base.  The only thing that ever got irradiated around there were my burritos in the microwave.

It's actually a beautiful town with good hunting and fishing nearby, and for you divers, many great lakes shipwrecks.

So if you get a chance, pack up the ole' Sasquach and head to Alpena for a great time.

Fogofwar

     I had to laugh when I saw the location of Alpena near the Indiana line, I owned a cabin on long lake many years ago and had 40 acres off of Karneski (SP) Rd. but sold it all 35 + yrs ago.  I wish I could remember the Indian fisherman who sold smoked fish off of us 23 spent many nights sitting out on the dock eating smoked fish and drinking beer and mixed drinks, also miss the Posem Potato Festival the 1st sat. I believe in Sept.  Too many yrs. have gone by.  Jim
