Pest control inadvertently exterminates all civil servants at Army North
FORT SAM HOUSTON, Texas — A pesticide treatment at the headquarters of U.S. Army North accidentally killed all of the civil servants assigned there, according to surviving Army officers.
More than 70 Army civilians—plus one unlucky Homeland Security liaison—were exterminated during a recent response to a cockroach infestation at the headquarters, which is located in San Antonio.
Decimated ranks included a few king-SES mega-roaches (classified as blattodea stultus piger reptilium), as well as some unlucky TDY civilians who were receiving training on providing civil support to waterbug-infested state and local governments.
