The World Reacts
Pentagon Silent on Anthrax Discovery at Andrews Air Force Base
By William Scott Malone

WASHINGTON, Nov. 7, 2001 -- The Pentagon is allegedly "covering
up" the
discovery of anthrax traces at the post office of Andrews Air Force
Base,
home to two Boeing jets used by President Bush, a reliable source said
Tuesday.
Anthrax spores were discovered last month at the Brentwood postal
facility,
which handles most mail destined for U.S. federal agencies. The highly
airborne spores from Brentwood are thought to have spread to postal
facilities in the Midwest as well as several federal agencies in the
Wahsington, D.C. area. An anthrax-laced letter that was addressed to
Senator
Tom Daschle had reportedly been sorted at Brentwood.
"But Andrews does not get its mail from the Brentwood Distribution
Center,"
Colonel Sheylar Geller, chief of staff for the 89th Medical Group at
the
base, was quoted as saying in a news article released by the base
Public
Affairs office on November 5. Still, Senior Airman Timothy Ezell, a
postal
clerk with the 89th Communications Squadron, said clerks who handle
mail
have been tested for anthrax at Walter Reed Medical Center.
The Pentagon has only announced so far that traces of anthrax have been
found at two post offices that handle mail for the department. Anthrax
spores have also been found at an off-site State Department facility
that is
known to handle unclassified diplomatic mail and routine U.S. mail.
Traces
of anthrax have been found in diplomatic pouches delivered to U.S.
embassies
in Lithuania and Peru. Tests results are pending for similar pouches at
U.S.
diplomatic missions in the Ivory Coast and Pakistan.
Andrews Air Force Base, located several miles outside of Washington,
D.C., is best known for two VC-25 aircraft whose call sign becomes "Air
Force One" when the president boards the plane.
Security has been tightened near the base since hijacked airplanes
struck the Pentagon and the World Trade Center complex in New York on
September 11.
Air Force One, which shuttled Mr. Bush from Florida to at least two
military bases, did not return to Andrews until later that evening amid reports
of a threat against the president.
There had been "credible information" that Air Force One and
the White House
may have been targets of terrorist attacks, U.S. officials acknowledged
the
following day. It has also been reported that "code words"
were used by an
unidentified caller to threaten the White House and the president's
jet.
