| 词条 | Operation Drop Kick |
| 释义 |
Between April and November 1956, the U.S. Army Chemical Corps conducted Operation Drop Kick[1] to test the practicality of employing mosquitoes to carry an entomological warfare agent in different ways. The Corps released uninfected female mosquitoes into a cooperative residential area of Savannah, Georgia, and then estimated how many mosquitoes entered houses and bit people. Within a day the mosquitoes had bitten many people.[2] In 1958, the Corps released 600,000 mosquitoes in Avon Park, Florida. These tests showed that mosquitoes could be spread by means of various devices.[3] The 1964 movie Dr. Strangelove also refers to an Operation Drop Kick.[4] The TV series Archer refers to Operation Drop Kick as the codename of a CIA mission to take over a Latin American country.[5] See also
