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."

Johnston Island is one of many well known superfund contaminated sites:

There are many superfund sites in USA and rest of the world that have contaminants that vets were exposed to. such as Camp LeJeune.

Osceola's response to his people, the Seminoles, was

simply "They(the US Army)have guns, but so do we."

Sameo to us -They (VA) have 38 CFR ,38 USC, and M21-1- but so do we.

All of the claims I have seen associated with it have been denied I read in an article last week it has been completely cleaned by the EPA and is now ready to become a National Bird Sanctuary I wonder if the birds will glow in the dark?
