Download Burn Pits: The Poisoning of America's Soldiers AudioBook Free
A large number of American soldiers are returning from the battlefields of Iraq and Afghanistan with severe wounds from chemical war. They aren't the subjects of ruthless adversary warfare, but of their own armed forces commanders. These soldiers, afflicted with uncommon cancers and respiratory diseases, were sickened from the smoke cigars and ash swirling out of the "burn pits" where armed forces contractors incinerated mountains of garbage, including old stockpiles of mustard and sarin gas, medical throw away, and other dangerous material. Predicated on thousands of federal government documents, over 500 in-depth medical case studies, and interviews with more than 1,000 veterans and active-duty GIs, The Shed Pits will shock the country. The reserve is more than an explosive work of investigative journalism - it is the deeply moving chronicle of the numerous teenagers and women who signed up to serve their country in the wake of 9/11, and then return home forever damaged, the subjects of their own armed forces' criminal negligence.
