I doubt the DOD and the VA care, I filed my claim in Nov 2002 and it is still on appeal. They didn't want to find us, and when they do they refuse to help. They have been caught lying to Senator Larry Craig whenhe was the Chairman of Senate VA Committee about my use as a test subject. I don't think the VA or DOD are very afraid of the GAO. This has gone on for more than three decades and te veterans are the losers. I imagine many of the widows have never been told their husbands were used in these experiments. Of the 7120 men of Edgewood 3098 are already dead 40% of the 4022 survivors 54% of them are disabled we can sit on the sidewalk outside the VA and they can't find us.

That is horrible and sad. I can't believe that was done to so many people and still it is not being taking care of.
