On Monday, October 15, Ellen Barfield and Brian Barrett sat in
at the gates of the Warfield Air National Guard Base in Essex,
Maryland, while eight other members of the Baltimore Emergency
Response Network vigiled nearby. The base is home to a squadron of
A-10 anti-tank aircraft, the primary source of toxic depleted uranium
armor-piercing bullets that have forever contaminated battlefields in
Iraq and the Balkans. The two were arrested and held overnight for
arraignment, then released on their own recognizance until their next
court appearance in February, 2002.
