Durante la pulizia di un capannone situato in Via Ladera (Distretto di Westside), gli eredi dell’ex proprietario ormai deceduto (un reduce), trovano due ordigni bellici inesplosi completi di carica esplosiva e altri residuati bellici. Sul posto giungono gli artificieri appartenenti al Bomb Squad della base aerea di Vandenberg. I tecnici rimuovono le bombe e le distruggono al Pershing Park.
