[ RadSafe ] Doyle and Ryan Gulf war reproductive health paper

[John Jacobus]

One of the reasons that tungsten is being considered
as a replacement for DU is that on Navy ships, DU
storage areas are frequently adjacent to berthing
compartments.  As U-238 decays, the daughter products
emit photons of signficant energies that may to lead
to exposures to the men (and women) in the berthing
areas.  For the Army and Air Force, their people do
not sleep to DU storage areas.

“We must face the fact that the United States is neither omnipotent or omniscient — that we are only 6 percent of the world’s population; that we cannot impose our will upon the other 94 percent of mankind; that we cannot right every wrong or reverse each adversity; and therefore there cannot be an American solution to every world problem.”
