Question

  • HadIt.com Elder

Testvet?

Anybody?

Is it on a "list" made by the VA or DOD, concernng chemical or radiation exposure?

From what I have heard.......the place ought to be glowing in the night.

Any studies anyone knows of?

"It is cold and we have no blankets.

The little children are freezing to death.

My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food; no one knows where they are-perhaps freezing to death.

I want to have time to look for my children and see how many of them I can find.

Maybe I shall find them among the dead.

Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad.

From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever."

Chief Joseph

Thanks. I did google for it, but I didn't get, or didn't see the chppm part.

Was wondering if it appears on any VA list, you know, like with SHAD, etc., and whether there are any "presumptive" disabilities connected thereto?

Larry, I believe it is mainly a storage depot. I know it has GB abd VX as well as other agents stored on it.

I saw it on several lists when I worked for DOD when it came to chemical munition storage facilities.

I will try to dig some of those up.

A Veteran is a person who served this country. Treat them with respect.

A Disabled Veteran is a person who served this country and bears the scars of that service regardless of when or where they served.

Treat them with the upmost respect. I do. Rejection is not a sign of failure. Failure is not an option, Medical opinions and evidence wins claims. Trust in others is a virtue but you take the T out of Trust and you are left with Rust so be wise about who you are dealing with.

Check out U S Army Chemical Materials Agency www.cma.army.mil/publications.aspx?criteria=site&value=jacads

Some info there about the hundredths of thousands of chemical weapons, bombs, landmines, rockets, and projections destroyed there. Still searching for more.

You know what I'm doing, doncha?

Just a "yes" or "no".
