The United States has a vast horde of Chemical and Biological weapons stored throughout the US and they construct two Destruction plants to erase this problem. The crews working in these plants are locked inside the building for three weeks strait and they had orders if a spill happens if they can't handle it the crew was to not try and escape the building and die in place. A spill happens and the doctors try to get out of the building after they disconnected the small nuclear sterilizing device. A lone Colonel gets into the building and he enters the containment side to place a battery backup system on the nuclear device, and if forced to set it off by hand, ten inches away from his face.
