Some Ulster County Gulf War vets say they are victims of depleted uranium

Veterans Gerard Mathew, Herbert Reed and Ray Ramos, featured in the film, “Poison Dust”, an expose on the use of radioactive Depleted Uranium, were guests of honor at a special screening of the film in Manhattan. Matthew’s wife, Janice, recently gave birth to a baby girl, Victoria, who was born with a deformity.
Thousands of tons of this radioactive material are currently being used in munitions and as protective armor on tanks. When weapons are deployed and ignite, the DU is released as fine radioactive dust and remains on the battlefield. It is inhaled or ingested.
