MoD Accept DU has the potential to cause ill health

British Troops serving in Iraq are now being issued with an F Med 1018.

Why not before the Iraq war, Balkans or Gulf War? Are service personnel from other nations aware that   British Troops carry this warning card?  Are Iraqi Civilians aware of this warning card?  Are Civilians aware of this warning card who around the world live near test firing range's.  Copies of this card should be made for the Iraqi civilians to turn up at British & American Military  establishments in Iraq and ask for testing as it was  the US and the UK that used Uranium Munitions.  Please distribute the faxed, photo-copy of the card  that was sent to me. REMEMBER The MoD have always told Gulf War 1 Vet's  DU IS SAFE another demonstration of an UNTRUTH  It was said that DU was experimental during Gulf War 1 - then is this another demonstration of the breaking of the Nuremberg Code by observing the health effects on the Veterans after the War?
