No Photographs. No Drawings. No Graphic Representations.
Per directive of the Secretary of Defense, August 20, 1954. Savanna Army Depot. Savanna, Illinois.
The Savanna Army Depot sits just north of the town of Savanna, Illinois on a 13,000-acre strip on the eastern bank of the Mississippi River, and there, from 1917 till recently, the U.S. Army received and shipped and tested and stored and demolished and buried munitions, explosives, and industrial chemicals. The area is now an EPA Superfund site.
I plan to return for more photography. And drawing. Maybe even some cartography.

Next time I visit, I will look for something to rub.
