Visitors From The Wasteland


So I received a few responses, emails, etc. from people who remember the good old days on Lojwa. Good to hear from you all. Hope everyone is well and glad to have visitors. I am posting this picture, I believe it was the boat ride returning from a hard days work on Runit. I am the skinny guy holding up the pole, or maybe the pole is holding me up?
If anyone recognizes a picture with them in it let me know, It's hard to remember names but I think I will always remember the faces.

Hey mike'
Rick Masculine aka Bklyn Ballbuster
Heavy Junk ,Hootch #14,concerning testing for rads,I asked one of the scientist/drs from Dtra I believe, responsable for testing the locals from Enewetak for rads why are they only testing their urine and not giving them stool samples,concidering that plutonium and stronium only show up in urine in minute amounts,it settles in the lungs and goes out to the stool when coughed up,his reply was that because of cultural differences they didn't think it would be propper,but exsposing them to atomic waste was?
by the way the island of Enjubi shows up as a test site with the highist levels of Berylium,They call it cbd chronic berylium disease.what ever happoned to airforce cpt Jon Flores that went out in conoe with non com grape ape,were conoe was found overturned in lagoon with clothes suposably eaten by sharks or the rumor that they were found awol on Okinowa?
or the 2 or 3 gi's that died after being sent back to hawaii after eating C4, anyway the steaks were good.
drop me a line,

PS i have the CBS 60 minute video
paradise lost the Enewetak clean up project.
PSS. why were we allowed to come back to the mainland with the same uniforms,hats,boots with radioactive sand,that we wore on ohe hot islands,not to mention sea shells and coral soveniers,by the way we ate the coconuts,i guess that exsplains the Squarmus cell carcinoma tumor they removed with a wedge out of my tounge,
Thank God I can still talk.
see ya.............
