I can not speak for any specific caches, but I know one of the jobs that we had as EOD was to dispose of unserviceable munitions, they gave us lots of stuff that we no longer had a weapons platform to use for our training, and when we had time we would dispose of other stuff as well. Things like Navy 8" to 16" shells, Army 105mm tank rounds, and 4.2" mortar bombs, they also brought out truck loads of small arms for us to burn. It was delivered to us as unserviceable, but they did not say why or where it came from. So it is your best guess where it came from.

PS - This was during the Bush II, and Obama years so in TW2000 time there would still be stuff left, as we were still getting rid of it 12+ years latter.
