Back during the british occupation of india, the rumor was that the brits were using some form of animal fat in rifle oil, and that biting the top off of a paper powder cartidge would expose you. The Moslems were telling each other it was pig fat, and the Hindus, beef.

Of course, neither side was right.

BTW, the US government is, in fact, in the habit of convering things up. But they usualy come to light eventualy, thanks to the freedom of information act.
