were safe to transport. The team found that three of the Type 63 rockets had no venturi
covers and had wires protruding from them. One obviously had been tampered with and the
other two were suspect. Without an x-ray capability to verify condition of the rockets they
were treated as booby-trapped. The rockets were remotely moved out of the conex and put
onto a trailer. The path out of the FOB was cleared of personnel and the items were
transported to a more suitable location for detonation. Also destroyed was an MJ-1 fuze
