To all Atomic Veterans, Army,Navy,Marines,Air Force,Coast Guard,Government employes, please feel free to leave your atomic experience here for all to read. This site is to
allow all to learn of our sacrifice for our country and the American people. Please be civil in your statements or stories, no profanity. I know some of us have lost many friends and relatives due
to being exposed to radiation caused by these nuclear tests and the ones having to work in a radiation environment. Let us hope the American people will stand with us in the hope all Atomic veterans
will receive the compensation and recognition we all deserve. Please send your statement or story to cvnorris@att.net and I will check it and post here for all to read.
Children of Atomic Veterans This web-site was
set-up originally to search for fellow (Paul Tibbets Group) 509 Bomb Wing nuclear test participants of "IVY". It then evolved into a "help" site to assist those
people, who because of secrecy, know little about the veteran's participation and the resultant medical consequences. Hopefully this site can assist in the reconstruction of those lost
years. Included are sources of information for veterans and survivors in gaining the benefits these veterans earned by virtue of their service to their country.
