Former Pueblo Chemical Depot employees reminisce at the PCD museum Sept. 12. The 23,000-acre depot was constructed in 1942 to store and ship ammunition and general military supplies in support of World War II. After the war, depot workshops were remodeled and expanded to remanufacture a variety of materiel, including tanks and combat vehicles. PCD supplied the American warfighter in every major conflict up to the Gulf War in 1991, after which it transitioned to storage of the chemical weapons stockpile.
