Military bases across the nation have been contaminated with numerous chemicals, to which active duty and veterans have been exposed to. The EPA, the Pentagon, and Congress are aware of these issues, but have been downplaying the problems all along. Something needs to be done quickly because people are suffering and dying because of their exposure. 149 bases have been designated as Superfund sites by the US Environmental Protection Agency, meaning they are amoung the most hazardous areas in the country. KI Sawyer AFB, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan is one of those sites. I was stationed there from 1972 until 1976, at the height of use of these different chemicals. Please help me bring national attention to this problem and force the EPA, the Pentagon, and Congress to act.
