why is there is no mention of the USS G. S. Hall AG40 and crew surveillance of the tests conducted on Mururoa atoll on 3 July 1970. I was there for several tests but no reporting of us being there. Many of us have medical conditions that we believe to be connected to this program.

I was aboard HMNZS Canterbury when it went to Mururoa for the protest. My web page is www.mururoavets.com
