My dad worked at the DuPont Explosives Works (DuPont, WA) until it closed in 1976. I spent a couple of summers there in college, too... Never thought to grab some of the old boxes that were being thrown out...

It's not often that I'm able to help and glad to when I'm able. lol. I love history of stuff like this, especially, because my grandma worked in a plant just like this during WW2 in Eldred, PA
