\"The Marine Corps is on the verge of unveiling perhaps the biggest breakthrough in weapons technology since the atomic bomb: a nonlethal weapon that fires directed energy at human targets.\"

\"I have nothing to hide. This is a good news story. Our American public needs to understand that we have done our homework.\" - Col. George Fenton, Director, Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate, Department of Defense
