In Response To: Dustin Brim - How DU Kills U.S. Soldiers *PIC* (ChristopherBollyn)

Dr. Doug Rokke, former director of the U.S. Army's Depleted Uranium Project, is pushing for the Army to comply with its own regulations on DU. One of the key points he makes is that U.S. military personnel are not informed or protected from the dangers of DU exposure. The photo below shows how Dustin Brim and his fellow soldiers worked with contaminated combat vehicles without a stitch of protection. Working with DU-laden vehicles without having "moon-suit" protective garb is certain to cause delayed casualties and long-term health problems. As Dustin lay in Walter Reed Hospital dying of cancer, a nurse told Mrs. Brim to research depleted uranium effects on human health. "He isn't the first and he won't be the last," she told his mother.
