RSG Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I was wondering if you guy's know of a way to accquire information of diabetes cases and/or other pshycological issues, after serving at Treasures Island, San Francisco. Reason I'm asking Is that all the Barracks were built on a Toxic Waste site. I just want to see if there is any connection between the toxic waste and illnesses incurred after being stationed there. Right now It's curiousity. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RSG Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 warning! May be offensive to some due to one picture of nudity The Story of Treasure Island http://treasureislandfestival.com/island.php There is one part that is mentioned about hostilities to wards military personnel by bay area residents. I don't remember reading about this before. I lived it, just don't remember reading anything about it, except this one jerk that said we all lied about the hostile treatment. Any service member coming and going out of San Francisco or Oakland after 1968, got the treatment first hand. There were many of us that took beatings and some died before the Navy made it mandatory shore leave or liberty with a buddy. Many of us chose to stay on base, where it was safe. And how safe was it? We lived on this base. Took showers in it, washed our clothes, worked and trained on it and the SF people act like they're waiting for a new species to emerge from it, due to the toxins, "still" left behind.
