As I've mentioned in another thread some time ago (maybe a year or more) the PCs in my last campaign decided after they got back to the CONUS that they wanted to build a "dirty bomb" and they came up with a novel way to do this: they specifically searched for broken x-ray machines in medical clinics, hospitals and at international airports. The CO of the PC's unit, Major Anthony Po, was originally a medical doctor and he knew that x-ray machines contain little canisters of radioactive isotopes such as Cobalt 60 and Iridium-192.
I was the GM of the campaign and the player of Major Po never did tell me why he wanted his character to be able to make dirty bombs. On one hand I was eager to find out. On the other hand the thought of the amoral Major Po possessing a dirty bomb filled me with horror. I'll have to ask the player next time I see him.
