Employers of Maryland Army National Guard members got to experience what it is like to be a citizen-soldier during a Boss Lift event at Edgewood Area Aberdeen Proving Ground.
Nine military bases near the Chesapeake Bay are contaminated with "forever chemicals" from firefighting foams used by the Defense Department, an environmental advocacy group warned this week.
The Environmental Working Group said the biggest risk is that the chemicals might have flowed out of the groundwater at military sites in Maryland and Virginia and into the bay.
