"Alarming Discovery: Carcinogens Detected at US Nuclear Missile Sites Amid Rising Cancer Cases"
The United States Air Force has discovered unsafe levels of a likely carcinogen, PCBs, at underground launch control centers at a nuclear missile base in Montana, where a significant number of personnel have reported cancer diagnoses. This finding comes after a military briefing revealed that at least nine current or former missile staff at the base were diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma. In response, the Air Force has ordered a cleanup operation and measures to mitigate exposure to potentially hazardous conditions. A grassroots group reports that at least 268 soldiers who served at nuclear missile sites have self-reported being diagnosed with cancer or other illnesses over the past few decades.
