#TriggerWarning ⚠️🪖😑
Just to list a few.... List of US #atrocities against its own military members involves incidents where service members were mistreated, exposed to harm, or neglected by their own government. Some notable examples:
1. **Agent Orange Exposure**: During the Vietnam War, many US military personnel were exposed to the toxic chemical #AgentOrange, leading to severe health problems, including cancer, #birthdefects, and other chronic illnesses. The government was slow to recognize and compensate affected veterans.
2. **Atomic Veterans**: Military personnel were used as test subjects during nuclear weapons tests in the mid-20th century. These "atomic veterans" were often not informed of the risks and suffered from #radiation sickness, cancers, and other health issues.
3. **Gulf War Syndrome**: Veterans of the #GulfWar have reported a range of chronic symptoms including fatigue, muscle pain, and cognitive problems, believed to be linked to exposure to chemical weapons, depleted #uranium, and #vaccines.
4. **Walter Reed Army Medical Center Scandal (2007)**: Reports revealed horrendous living conditions, inadequate care, and bureaucratic obstacles for wounded soldiers at the #WalterReedArmyMedical Center, highlighting severe neglect of injured service members.
5. **Fort Hood Murders and Suicides**: Fort Hood has been the site of multiple tragic incidents, including mass shootings and high rates of #suicide among soldiers, bringing attention to issues of #mentalhealth, violence, and #inadequate support within the military.
6. **Burn Pits in Iraq and Afghanistan**: US military personnel were exposed to toxic fumes from burn pits used to dispose of waste in #warzones, leading to respiratory issues, cancers, and other long-term health problems. The government's response has been criticized for being slow and insufficient.
7. **My Lai Massacre Whistleblowers**: Soldiers who attempted to expose the #MyLaiMassacre in #Vietnam, where US troops killed hundreds of unarmed Vietnamese civilians, faced backlash, ostracization, and harm to their careers.
8. **Sexual Assault and Harassment**: Widespread issues of #sexualassault and harassment within the military have been reported, with many victims experiencing retaliation, inadequate support, and a lack of justice within the military justice system.
9. **The Tuskegee Airmen Experiment**: #AfricanAmericanmilitary pilots, known as the #TuskegeeAirmen, faced racial discrimination and were subjected to unethical medical experiments, including the infamous Tuskegee #Syphilis Study.
10. **Pat Tillman Friendly Fire Incident**: The death of #PatTillman, a former #NFL player turned Army Ranger, was initially misreported as enemy fire rather than friendly fire. The mishandling and cover-up of the incident by the military sparked outrage and scrutiny.
