U.S. had been using weather control for military purposes, Washington Post reported. Previously ignored passage in Pentagon papers Dept. of Defense report on Vietnam war released by press had indicated Indochina had been "test battleground, the site of purposeful rain-making along the Ho Chi Minh trails." Report by DOD's Advanced Research Projects Agency (PA) called Nile Blue had been cited as prime evidence of DOD rainmaking. Post said report was computer study of how man-made changes might affect world's year-to-year climate. ARPA Director Stephen J. Lukasik had told Senate Committee on Appropriations that Nile Blue was established in FY 1970 to achieve U.S. capability to evaluate consequences of possible actions to manipulate climate, detect changes in global circulation, and determine means to counter deleterious climatic changes.
