Atomic Veterans
By jxliv7, Section News Posted on Mon Jul 12, 2004 at 06:30:14 AM PST
The Atomic Veterans History Project contains over 600 personal narratives about the military duties and memories of US Servicemen who witnessed these atomic and hydrogen weapons tests. Many veterans have sent photos, certificates and newspaper articles which have been included. What happened to these men and what they went through afterwards does not paint a pretty picture.

The United States' nuclear atmospheric tests involving military personnel are described from Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 to the Eniwetok Cleanup of 1977-1980. There are over 500 photos from the recently declassified DOE atomic test films. You can even order Atomic test videos on the site. Over 2500 files (stories, pictures and documents) are posted. Atomic Veterans are invited to email their personal recollections. Information on researching your atomic military history is provided.
