Because of FDR and his guilt and demand for secrecy about chemical weapons my uncle died in Bari Italy Dec 1943 ...
Most of the American, Canadian, Aussie, NZ soldiers and marines who died during a German air raid were poisoned by the deadly chemicals/mustard gas leaking from broken barrels from the sunken John Harvey into the water at the pier ... the unwounded men who leaped into the water died from blisters and sores from the chemicals ..an American doctor finally guessed what they were dying from but couldnt help them ..
My uncle lingered from Dec 2 until the 23rd ...
FDR sealed all records for years it was 1966 before the information was finally available ... My family never knew how my uncle really died ...
Im not fond of FDR ..
My sister just gave me the book about that for Christmas.
Haven’t started it yet.
Something else to consider is the thousands of tons
of Mustard gas and others, dumped into the ocean after
WW I.
