Veterans who led on toxic exposure call defense bill passage a critical first step

Veterans who led on toxic exposure call defense bill passage a critical first step WASHINGTON A massive defense bill passed by Congress on Friday includes provisions that would require government studies of military toxic exposure among fighter pilots and some of the first forces that deployed after the 9/11 attacks.
