Vets sue government "for radiation exposure WASHINGTON (UPI)-The federal government was sued yesterday by U.S. military veterans who claim they suffered from cancer or other serious illnesses after exposure to radiation from the World War II bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and r peacetime nuclear tests. The class action suit was filed in U.S. istrict Court in Washington by ttorneys of the National Veterans Law Center specifically on behalf of seven former servicemen and two widows of former servicemen and tWo unofficial N veterans organizations. IN ADDITION to the estimated 4,000 servicemen ordered to clean up Hiroshima and Nagasaki after the August 1945 bombings, the action is also of interest to about 250,000 personnel said to have participated in nuclear *eapons tests between 1946 and 1962. - '.~i -'SM iNN The suit seeks to invalidate rules and procedures put out by the Veterans Administration last year for evaluating or accepting compensation claims by veterans or survivors for health problems or death allegedly caused by service-connected radiation. It also asks for reversal or re- examination of VA rulings denying compensation for 483 of 490 veterans or next of kin who had claimed benefits for cancer, tumors, leukemia, blindness, sterility and other defects as result of nuclear explosions. SOME OF THE same men who took part in the Japanese cleanup also later participated with thousands more in nuclear weapons tests in the Marshall Islands in the Pacific and at the Nevada Testing Site. Above-ground testing ended in 1962 with the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. .:. Your Choice oflaA89on 4t..
