Extractions: ~~ WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL ~~ GOD BLESS OUR COMMANDER IN CHIEF AND ALL OF OUR BRAVE TROOPS FIGHTING TERROR When the atmospheric nuclear testing ended in 1963, no medical follow-up was ever conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission or Department of Defense. There was never any government-sponsored medical surveillance of its "atomic test subjects," nor any attempt on the part of the government to contact those who participated in the atomic tests and alert them to the fact their health was potentially at risk. FACT: The U. S. government wasted millions on slick publications, pamphlets, useless studies and radiation dosage reconstruction in an effort to convince victims of nuclear radiation they were never exposed to levels of radiation high enough to cause health problems. U. S. MILITARY PERSONNEL CAN OBTAIN PROOF OF PARTICIPATION
