RE: Can someone explain this to me in fireman talk

===============

I would bet the troops had less-than-adequate briefings as to what medical

risks might be present at the outset, because if they had, they would be

focusing in on the real "probable exposure" situations (e.g. pneumonitis

from birdshit, sensitization from solvent exposures, etc

etc) rather than the unrealistic one of U exposure.

===============



The soldiers had pre-deployment DU awareness briefings. DU awareness also is

part of the Soldiers Task List required for promotion. However, they

received additional "briefings" via the media from the likes of Dr.

Durakovic and Dr. Rokke. Guess which ones are being applied now.
