Comedian Jon Stewart and troops sickened by uranium have ended a meeting at the Department of Veterans Affairs angry that once again they have been told they will have to wait to see whether the VA will connect their illnesses to the toxic base where they were deployed shortly after 9/11.
It’s literally the reason landmines in their current form exist.

As a bonus, that guy then needs to be cared for, transported away, etc. etc.
