Jack on CBR Target

I was one of a group of twelve or so that were exposed to GB gas via artillery fired at a test site containing live animals. These tests were remotely viewed via cameras installed inside the impact area bunkers and tanks. Our job was to remove dead animals to the dump site and repair the site for the next demonstration which occurred every Thursday at noon. Only a few of us had gas masks and none of us were given protective clothing. The only reason any of us had masks was because we physically broke into the locked supply room and took them without authorization. Those who were too scared to take one went to the site without one. It was so common to go to the site without anything but a gas mask that we didn't know we were supposed to have anything other than that.

Immediately afterwards we were separated and weren't allowed to talk about it to each other or anyone else. I have no idea what happened to the others, except one that lives in my hometown coincidentally, but is afraid to use his army records to locate any of those that may be alive. He is nomadic by nature and hard to stay in contact with. If I can get in contact with him I feel that he will want to help if he knows there is someone other than the two of us.

The experience of personal and civil abuses we had to endure as a result of this incident have been with me for almost thirty years and as I live in constant pain from a series of ailments 24 hours a day, I will gladly tell anyone that is seriously interested simply that the TRUTH be known.

I will be available twenty four hours a day for any assistance I may be able to provide. If ANYONE knows some of the guys who were there with me and got exposed please e-mail me. I would like to know if they are still alive and if so, what their illnesses are as compared to mine.
