Hello, Greetings from the UK
We have been fighting a campaign against fake explosives detectors e.g. ADE651 in Iraq, for over 2 years now.
Depsite the histories of Quadro Tracker and Sniffex (2 previous versions of this fraud in the USA), at least one other company, H3Tec from Utah, is still trying to sell these tarted up dowsing rods.
On their webiste they make various claims about military contacts and contracts (see here at bottom of the home page: H3 Tec State-of-the-art in detection)
The fact that the H3tec cannot and does not work makes this a sick fraud. Claiming to be saving lives when they are in fact putting them at risk is pretty low.
We believe that Mr Christensen at H3tec has made up most of his claims about military use. However, given the terrible history so far with similar devices, we feel it is important to try to ensure that no one in the US Military has been conned, and that the company does not have the chance to sell this scam to any corrupt or gullible overseas buyres on the back of his claims of US military endorsement.
The website includes this picture, which he claims is a Lt Col Mitton (No id of unit), and testing at Fort Liggett Hunter in CA.
Can anyone identify the unit in the picture?
Thanks and regards.
