Veterans' Rare Cancers Raise Fears of Toxic Battlefields

Submitted by Gary Corb, Aug 7, 2007 14:00

It is about time some of these horror story are made public, just like Adolph had his little secrets in WWII now Herr Bush has his in his endless War on Terror. My hearty goes out for our troops in harms way from the very government they serve. Who's the enemy? Kudo's for the NY Sun for having the courage to print TRUTH. A very rare commodity in corporate controlled Media these days.
