The Oklahoma City Bombing

What was the Army doing with a Ryder Truck just before the Murrah blast?

The pilot who took the photos wishes (for the obvious reasons) to remain anonymous, but these photos are purported to be of an area near Camp Gruber-Braggs, Oklahoma in early April of 1995. Needless to say, just days after this photo was taken, the Murrah Building in Oklahoma City was destroyed (along with internal cutter charges) by a Ryder truck full of explosives.

NEW! In a recently discovered news article written by the Washington Post on June 17th, 1997, the Oklahoma National Guard authenticates the following photos as being exactly what they appear to be, photos of a Ryder truck in a clandestine base at Camp Gruber-Braggs.

Info About The Area

BRAGGS town Additional Info: This is the mother of all traps if your from out of town you will get caught no matter what. The trap is located right next to Camp Gruber at the first convenience store and the cop is always there. He uses K band on the radars. I once got stopped twice in one day and got tickets both times!!!
