THE TOUGH YEAR
|
|
In this section, you'll read several important studies and reports about depleted Uranium and the potential health effects surrounding the use of munitions containing dU. |
|
There are numerous reports about dU and its use. Some claim dU causes every medical problem Gulf troops suffer from. While others claim dU poses no possible risk to our troops. Neither extreme has been scientifically proven. |
|
Finally, many studies, even those supporting the continued use of dU munitions, often label the medical risk as "small" or "very low" from exposure to dU. Why would you use dU if there was ANY risk to our troops? |
