"must Read!!!"

[HARDCORE]

?MUST READ!!?

For years, I have been fighting a battle over illegal experimentation that took place upon U. S. Service Personnel (myself included) during the Cold War (1955-1967). ?Well at last, someone in power is beginning to listen!?

In today's Union Tribune, Page A-3 (Tuesday, August 13, 2002), ?Pentagon Lists Tests That May Have Left Servicemen Exposed?, the issue of experimentation by our own and upon our own was (partially) covered.

You can punch this piece up on your home computer at www.sandiegouniontribune.com. Hit today's paper (more news, second section).

If you can not punch up the Union Tribune, go to www.deploymentlink.osd.mil

The only question now is, how long will it take (if ever) to get to the whole story and what will
be done to the guilty and for the victims of these domestic atrocities?
--------------------------------------------------
UPDATE:

I just saw where the Tribune on Line was updated. As this material is probably covered under copyright, I will touch on the basics-

?PENTAGON LISTS TESTS THAT MAY HAVE LEFT SERVICEMEN EXPOSED? TRIALS WERE RUN IN THE 1960s AND 1970s

Let me start out by quoting the cute spin doctoring now being used by the Pentagon to describe their Domestic Atrocities:

Quote - ?Pentagon officials have said that servicemen involved were not test subjects, but
rather test conductors!? Using this contorted line of reasoning, a dead man is not a dead man at
all, but rather just a body in transition !? (BS)

It seems that the Pentagon has miraculously discovered the names of some 109 tests that were
undertaken in the ?60s and ?70s using un-Godly chemical and biological agents, and have just released the names of some 2800 former servicemen who took part in these ?Mengelistic Abominations!!? You can bet your a$$ that if Big Brother is releasing nearly 3000 names of its victims, many thousands more are yet being kept under wraps!

The names that have been released are probably those who by virtue of House and Senate probes would have come to light anyway! Such a disclosure would prove embarrassing and a real career buster. But what of those UNWITTING VICTIMS of this mass insanity? Will they ever be recognized, treated and/or compensated in their lifetimes!? ?HELL NO, not unless the culprits behind this experimentation are pressured into doing so!

Also, and for the record again, this article also pointed out that, and I quote:

?To be eligible for benefits, veterans have to prove that their ailments were related to these
tests!? This is an almost impossible mission as most documentation was obliterated to protect the guilty years ago by those in power who were trusted by the victims! In other words, these
victims will be killed off by time games, denials, threats, intimidation, record destruction and
alteration, and lies by so-called honorable men! People (the experimenters) whom in my opinion
will some day even be detested in Hell!

And what of those liars and yes-men within the system who aided and abetted (past and present) these beast?

NEWS RELEASE from the United States Department of Defense

No. 419-02
(703)695-0192(media)
IMMEDIATE RELEASE
August 13, 2002
(703)697-5737(public/industry)

DOD PROJECT 112/SHAD INVESTIGATION INFO NOW ON-LINE

The Department of Defense announced today enhanced efforts to communicate the results of the Project 12/Shipboard Hazard and Defense investigation. A revised site now includes a status
report of the declassification of medically relevant information of all Project 112 chemical and biological warfare agent tests conducted in the 1960s. The Shipboard Hazard and Defense (SHAD) program was a subset of Project 112 tests conducted by the
Deseret Test Center. Between 1963 and 1970 under Project 112, 109 tests were planned. To date, DoD has published 12 fact sheets that chronicle ships and units involved in the SHAD
tests, when the tests took place, and the substances to which the crews may have been exposed.

"We know that the veterans who participated in Project 112 and Project SHAD tests are interested in the progress of our investigation. The new section on the DeploymentLINK Web site will allow them to monitor our progress," said William Winkenwerder, assistant secretary of defense for health affairs.

"This will provide a continuous update until the work is complete."

Currently, the declassification of medically relevant information for 21 of the Project 112 tests is under way;
completion and publication of additional fact sheets is expected in early fall. Investigators have also determined that of the 109 identified Project 112 tests, 52 were cancelled, 45 were
completed, and the statuses of the remaining 12 are unknown at this time. Official documents reporting test cancellation will be declassified and made available on the site.

Later this month, a team of investigators will travel to Dugway Proving Ground, Utah, to review Deseret Test Center records.

Medically relevant information derived from the ongoing investigation will be declassified and made available to the
Department of Veterans Affairs, veterans and the public. So far, investigators have identified approximately 2,700 to 2,800
servicemembers involved in these tests, many of whom participated in more than one test.

Project SHAD, an acronym for Shipboard Hazard and Defense, was
part of the joint service chemical and biological warfare test program conducted during the 1960s. Project SHAD encompassed tests designed to identify U.S. warships' vulnerabilities to
attacks with chemical or biological warfare agents and to develop procedures to respond to such attacks while maintaining a war-fighting capability. Although classified, the Department of Defense has been actively pursuing declassification of
relevant medical information.

Veterans who believe they were involved in SHAD tests and desire
medical evaluations should call the VA's Helpline at (800) 749-8387. SHAD fact sheets are available on line at http://deploymentlink.osd.mil/curren...ad_tests.shtml
