The Kingsland (Currently Lynhurst, NJ) Explosion was a munitions factory that produced 76mm high explosive shells. In a four hour time period the building was totally destroyed along with 500.000 rounds of munitions. The 11 January 1917 sabotage was conducted by a Theodore Wozniak who avoided capture and prosecution.
No one was killed. Credit for that miracle is given to Theresa "Tessie" McNamara, the plant's switchboard operator who remained at her post and rang each building in the complex and issued the terse command "Get Out or Go Up" before moving on to the next building.
