A Plague on Your Children

Must I Serve

"A Plague on Your Children" reports on the little-publicized development of chemical and biological weapons. BBC cameras visited laboratories in England and Sweden for a look at the effects of nerve gases and anthrax germs on animals. (Sequences showing affected rabbits and a dog are particularly unpleasant.) Also: British troops are seen going through assault maneuvers while under the effect of disorientation drugs.
