Let's talk about the 'Special Projects' shipping pallets that arrived at Orion warehouse in 1984.

Three days before the September 9, 1989 fire at Orion Tower, an unmarked flatbed truck arrived at 03:00 and loaded all three unopened pallets back up.
In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort.

Where were those pallets taken? To Ashford Poly? To a military storage depot?

They weren't shipping vinyl records or promotional posters. That was rack-mount telecommunications hardware.

Armed guards? Come on. In the 80s, security couriers transported expensive gold stampers and master tapes all the time.
