Subject: Paradise Poisoned by Depleted Uranium
Hawaiian Islands Contaminated
With Ballistic Uranium

The US Army admitted the radiological contamination of Hawaii in
the summer of 2007. The contamination was later confirmed by the
senior US Senator from Hawaii, The Honorable Daniel Inouye. The
first 2007 Army air born radiological contamination survey
identified 45 locations with dangerous levels of Gamma Ray
radiation from US Army uranium munitions. Satellite radiation
observations have not been released by the Pentagon.

Hawaiian Islands Are Contaminated with
Ballistic Uranium

Army admits to the contamination of Hawaiian islands with depleted
uranium spotting rounds on Schofield Barracks, O'ahu and Pohakuloa
Training Area, Hawai'i Island. Help us save paradise from this most
toxic substance.

(Hawaii) Depleted uranium (DU) is stored in Hawai'i under the Naval
Radioactive Materials Permit. The Navy accidentally fired two DU
rounds from Pearl Harbor in 1994. The rounds landed somewhere above
Aiea and were never recovered. The Environmental Impact Statement
of the 25th Infantry Transformation to the Stryker Brigade Combat
Team published in 2004 states emphatically that depleted uranium
munitions were never part of the Army's arsenal.
Despite this claim spent DU spotting rounds were found at Schofield
Barracks, (An army base and live-fire training range on O'ahu), in
August 2005. This discovery was not disclosed by the military but
through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) instigated by concerned
residents of Hawai'i.
In August 2007 the army admits the Pohakuloa Training Area (An army
base and live-fire training range on Hawai'i Island) is also
contaminated with depleted uranium spotting rounds. There are
hundreds and hundreds of these spent DU rounds on these two live-
fire training ranges.
Any uranium product used as munitions becomes ballistic once it is
fired, launched or dropped. Ballistic depleted uranium
contamination is a serious problem in Hawai'i.
Depleted uranium is a toxic radioactive waste product of the
nuclear industry that has a half life of over 4 billion years. In
other words, DU is radioactive forever.
The military claims that depleted uranium munitions are low level
radioactivity and are not harmful to health and environment. The
military's claims are false.
The military's talking points are about the solid form depleted
uranium, the military never addresses Hawai'i residents' concerns,
which is the ballistic form of depleted uranium. When depleted
uranium munitions are used in war or artillery practices, these
munitions have a devastating effect on public health and the
environment.
Once DU munitions are launched, they become ballistic. They catch
fire, and on impact they can punch through anything with tremendous
force causing trillions of tiny radioactive particles of DU dust to
be scattered in the environment and carried in the air.
This is when the real public health problem begins. Once airborne,
these vaporized radioactive heavy metal particles can be inhaled or
ingested because of radioactive contamination of air, food or water
supply.
Many of our U.S. Veterans, serving in combat areas that use DU
munitions, are getting sick. Support legislation to test our troops
returning from Iraq for depleted uranium.
We must stand up for Hawai'i. We must protect our precious islands
and our veterans.
The military live-fire ranges in Hawai'i are radioactive!
See www.sbct-seis.org/ (published July 2007, chapter 3 page 7
Depleted Uranium).
We want all live-fire military training stopped in paradise. We
want the Stryker Brigade Combat Team to relocate elsewhere.
We want our sacred lands to be cleaned up. Practicing to make war
in the land of Aloha is inappropriate.
Please be pro-active and help us protect Hawai'i; demand the
military not store, use or transport depleted uranium in the
Hawaiian Islands.
Five million tourists visit Hawai'i every year. Would they stop
visiting if they knew how contaminated Hawai'i is?
We are asking for people all over the world who love Hawai'i to
help us protect Hawai'i. Write to the U.S Army by October 30 at

Say no Stryker Brigade in Hawai'i and clean-up depleted uranium
contamination on live-fire training ranges.

"Paradise," as she fondly calls Hawaii, for sixteen years. She

uncharacteristically high radiation levels near Pohakula Live Fire
Training Range in Hawaii. Kroll is a successful artist and writer
in Hawaii. Kroll's play "Ten Fingers Ten Toes" tells the tragic
story of an inhuman radiological poison - airborne ballistic
uranium. All parents and grand parents know instantly the meaning
