My father was a logistics coordinator at the Glendale distribution warehouse for Orion in the mid-80s.

The warehouse workers were explicitly forbidden from unbanding the crates or checking inventory barcodes.
In August 1984, three wooden pallets marked 'ORION R&D // CRE-7 HARDWARE' were delivered under armed security escort.

Whenever someone asks the former warehouse supervisor about those crates, he tells them to drop it if they value their pension.

They removed the hardware right before the fire was set. The fire was an insurance write-off and evidence disposal.
