"In my professional opinion, the known carcinogens and respiratory sensitizers released into the atmosphere by the burn pit present both an acute and a chronic health hazard to our troops and the local population," Aeromedical chief Lt. Colonel James Elliott wrote.
This is not the first report of these kind of incidents, and it will not be the last. There are resultant coverups, media distractions and intentional lack of reporting which blocks some of this from public view. Paul Turner
"Some forms of uranium can be absorbed if placed in direct contact with unprotected skin, such as with picking up objects containing uranium. This type of exposure could be easily avoided with simple precautions, such as not picking up fired DU munitions without wearing protective gloves."
Is it in the budget to supply protective gloves to the children in the countries where "depleted" uranium munitions are used? Paul Turner
Thousands of tonnes of this stuff is being dumped on so-called 'enemies' & it stays in the environment! We ALL have to live in the environment and we only have ONE Earth!
Nuclear war is against International Law & these weapons turn 'conventional' wars into nuclear wars!
my uncle worked at the red stone arsenal in alabama, he was a great guitar player, and a viet vet but agent orange, d.u., and other hazards of making and testing weapons for the gov devastated his life, he died when he was 40
thanks RF
i had no idea they used it for so many applications, they are poisoning the earth
precisely voodish -- the nanoparticle factor is the big dark secret the military never seems to mention. And for good reason -- it's absolutetly devastating to their case
Well they forgot to mention that nanoparticles of any metal produced at temperatures above 3000°C upon impact with penetrators are small enough to enter the nuclei of cells causing genetic aberrations, which can be passed on for generations. But the soldier will still fight, that's what they care about

I'm in the military and they still should have some videos like this before you go to Iraq. Of course the uranium there is awful. Most soldiers experience symptoms to poisoning from high levels. The risks involved in this world are too high for any one person to calculate. Be safe people...
DEPLETED URANIUM IS KILLING US...and who's fault is that...ours...so why don't we change the way this world is ran and vote all the people who have been in congress for too long...out of there...just vote the imcumbents out.....vote for someone new....this is the PEOPLE'S PARTY.....let's do something about this

I have a mind of my own, therefore I would be a poor soldier. I wish our men knew the truth about wars and money and the anti-christ government.

what's wrong with using a grinder that gets in your body and just keeps eating your flesh.... forever?

not an immediate threat.... but an eternal threat, nonetheless.
God! I hate my government!

Not an immediate health concern means you probably don't want to be around it AT ALL.

This shit is scary. It's ridiculous that these men and women are subject to combat conditions like this.
No wonder there are so many problems!

if its pyrophoric and ignites on impact then WHY are we using it as armor on the tanks

Probably because no-one else uses it as penetrators
