#1. i already killed all the soldiers and none of them had n e keys or lockpicks or lams on them.
#2 i've searched all the vents and only found 1 lockpick and nothing else.
#3. i do not have n e extra lams or explosive devises to break into the barrack lockers or the controll room 1 door.
ty ty ty guys for all your help. i must've been searching and searching that place for days trying to figure it out. when i finally used the sword it never, once, occurred to me that a sword would break the door down yet a gun couldn't. go figure. but i'm happy that i'm outta there. again...ty. :) if i get stuck again i'll know where to come.

Well, if you have no lockpicks, and no explosives, I fear you'll have to restart the level.
But you could get the GEP from the guy on the roof, and I think there are two packets of GEP rockets (one burning, one standard) in the armoury.

The control room door can't be destroyed, I believe (though I may be wrong), you need the key. You've got the right idea, the key IS inside one of the lockers, but you don't need explosives or lockpicks to open them. Look around a little more.
If that doesn't help you, here's the complete answer:
[SPOILER]The lockers can be bashed open with the sword hanging on the wall nearby. You don't even need to be skilled at all in Low-Tech Weapons, it should only take two or three hits to break them. Be sure that all the troops are dead or unconscious, because this makes a lot of noise.[/SPOILER]
And by the way, this message should probably go in DX1 Hints and Spoilers.

I thought it was so cool how they conveniently placed a sword there.

You can also take the GEP gun off the body of one of the two soldiers on the roof of the complex and blow the doors off all the lockers (this has always been my favorite method since there is a 4 pack of rockets in this area and I always have 20 rockets saved up by now, so I may as well shoot off 4 rockets before I pick up the ammo).
