Confirmed: Women Veterans Were Exposed to Asbestos at Fort McClellan Barracks by McClellanVet (created on )Gallery | Comments 
For those women who served at Fort
McClellan Alabama during the WAC years
(womens army corps), 1955 to 1978,
this article applies to you.

On the heels of returning from a 3 day
excursion back to the base, I am just
now getting my Amtrak legs back and
ready to make the entire VA system into
the laughing joke of a Moron Squad that
they really are.

My camera did not fail me, not in the least.
I have a handful of stories and collections
of photos to bring back for your dishing
and contemplation, and let all the Nay
Sayers on the Fort McClellan legislation
start running for cover as the outted
incompetent types that they are truly
are as the camera doesn't lie, thank
you, and it's lens over Moron Vet brains
for those who love to live their delusional
lives at the hands of fake rumors or
theories from jackass-land on the internet.

First up for the victory issues brought
back from Fort McClellan, is the outting
and confirmation that the former WAC
barracks building, was duly noted by
an independent EPA review ordered
by BRAC itself back in the late 1990's,
as having and bearing "asbestos
contained materials" [referred to as
ACM's in the BRAC report]. Remember
those stinking water pipes that ran
up and down the ceilings of the barracks?
Ceilings, pipes, air vents etc. are common
hiding places for asbestos back in the day everybody.

I offer up the photos I took of the
former WAC barracks, Alpha thru Delta,
and then the adjoining building known
as Echo Company. There is no mistaking
the building number on these photos.

I then took that building number and
ran it through the base closing report
ordered by BRAC and guess what everybody?
The VA is a freaking medical malpractice
factory and does not know how to investigate
anything involving Veterans health issues
and the same can be said about DOD.
My My What a shock?

Yup it's a match. All that needed to be
done was to verify the building number
to the BRAC report, and HELLO! the
true story comes popping out about
where the exposure trail begins for
all those who were stationed there.

Let this send the VA macho boneheads
running for cover because I am now
holding a letter from BlowHard Central,
i.e. newly sworn in Patrick Dunne as
the new VA undersecretary for No-Benefits,
somehow saying that veterans at
Fort McClellan were not exposed to anything.
What I put before you now as the plain
and simple truth is something that anybody
with a brain could have found out --- but
didn't. This is all sure to set into motion
a stampede of hearings on Capitol Hill
for the next and upcoming legislative
session.

It does for sure set up the premise once
and for all to say that women Veterans from
Fort McClellan had already suffered
initial building exposures BEFORE
completing the CS/CN gashouse field
maneuvers or before even reaching a
privilege level high enough to leave
the base for the first time on leaves and
passes to indulge in R & R in the
downtown district where Monsanto
was running it's own airborne contamination
story.

You can Blah Blah Blah all you want,
but there are only 2 pieces of evidence
here that nobody can deny or overcome
in bullshit rumors and the like: photos
and the BRAC report holding the building
number in the red flag paragraph noting
that the building had ACM's.

I hope this brings you rumor mongers
to your knees with apologies because
I have spent large and busted my rump
every which way to compile the research
materials that will facilitate our exposure
legisation for this next session.

You can, among other things, immediately
start calling for the resignation or firing
of Patrick Dunne at the VA.

Everybody got on the bandwagon for
the men who suffered asbestos exposure
on the ships. Well ----NOW let's
all stand back and see what the bandwagon
looks like for us girls thank you very much.
The last time I checked, we are human
too and what differences are there, exactly
behind men veterans on a ship and women
veterans in a barracks I would love to
know ?? None I say so shut up and
sit down.

I give to you know, the all crucial
photos below AND the LINK
to the corresponding BRAC report.

I will cut and paste the transfer of
Page 214 for you below, but here also
is the LINK so you can use the FIND
feature in the Edit toolbar and then
punch in the building number for the
former WAC Barracks: 2220. The search
feature will automatically take you
to Page 214 and then you can read it
and weep I say.

Everybody DO please now get behind
the Fort McClellan Veterans legislation
for this next up and coming session
at the House Veterans Affairs Committee.
Tell these dumb and lazy shitbrains
to stop wasting our time with senseless
delay and to submit and pass the Bill
for a floor vote at the very start of the
new session in 2009.

Ladies you were exposed to asbestos in
some kind of way so start standing up
for your rights with us so you can get
a 100% pay scale at VA claims. Don't
live in poverty and silence when there
is an active and verified contamination
story here. Get your Vet courage up
and start showing the VA the greatest
woman-vet Bitchout of all time. Get
yer backbone up thank you, and start
confronting this pile of crap VA in
where your EQUAL disability rights
are in this system, because so far,
we just haven't seen it anywhere.
It's all the boys at every turn and
unless we were raped, we have
no other story out here.

For sure, the men were involved in this
too as the report clearly denotes that
the barracks was converted to enlisted
mens quarters after our Corps was
decommissioned. But in history and
at this base, it is the WACS who held
presence here as the national boot
camp facility from 1955 to 1977. This
would be the larger population of
concern at this building at least for now
and that is the story which should
be advanced at McClellan.

Just from what has now been proven,
a lot of other buildings are named
as well in this report, but there was
no way for me to cram all that in
to a limited 3 day tour when I had
other places to be for the Band reunion.
So let this show and demonstrate
to everyone, that the truth is there
for anybody with a brain who knows
what and where to look for. You
have to first care about the issue
itself which the VA does NOT.

photographs below to enlarge the pictures

to reminice on their boot camp days
in a place from hell known as Fort
McClellan Alabama.
