"ATOMIC VETERANS DENIED BENEFITS"

Many nuclear tests have been performed over the last century. American troops were sent to Enewetak Atoll, Marshall Islands to attempt a Clean-Up Project. It was a joint task group effort including, the DNA, DOE, Holmes & Narver, AEC, and many more government agencies, as well as, Civilians and Foreign Nationals. All of the participants that were of the U.S. Military have been denied benefits for various cancers, etc, due to exposure to radiation. I am being treated for Stage III-C Colon Cancer. We also have been awarded a Humanitarian Medal for our efforts. We have to prove that we were there and provide witness statements, affidavits, travel orders, all while the V.A. has our records.
