Well, I hope it is an accident, as opposed to negligence.

yes,my grandfather recived one of thoes letters about possibal exposer. Hes 86 years of age, and a former frog man in the navy. Fortionately! He has been cleared of infection, and has no syntoms as of yet.My question is how do you staralize platics? Why don't thay use new matireals out of new packages? If you reuse platic matireals by staralizeing them, don't that become worped and mishaped? It seams too me, VA adminatraters are trying too save a few dollors, at the exspince of vets heath.Zachary Swain
Good questions. We owe our veterans better than this.
