Chemical experimentation on human beings is being carried out by the United States military, according to Joyce Riley, RN BSN, a spokesperson for the American Gulf War Veterans Association, who offers proof in a new DVD entitled "Beyond Treason."
Riley, who narrates the DVD, says that chemical and biological exposures have contributed to hundreds of thousands of health casualties, many resulting in death, of military veterans.
"Beyond Treason" consists of a DVD featuring interviews and images related to the experiments, plus a bonus CD-ROM with thousands of pages of documents retrieved from the Federal government through the Freedom of Information Act. Other documents are also provided to back up charges that the government is misleading the public in regard to this testing.
ICONOCLAST: YouÕve produced a new DVD called "Beyond Treason," which I understand is something that you have said all veterans should see.
RILEY: I want to promote that weÕve got 10,000 of these DVDs to give away, free, to military people. Anybody past military, present military, or just getting ready to join the military.
ICONOCLAST: How do people get one of those 10,000 copies?
RILEY: All we want is just proof of service, you know, VFW membership card, or American Legion, whatever, it doesnÕt make any difference. Just proof of showing some kind of military service and they can either fax it to us or they can mail it to us. If they fax, it is to 573-378-5998; mail is to Vet Offer (or Beyond Treason, either one), P.O. Box 85, Versailles, MO. 65084.
ICONOCLAST: "Beyond Treason," the U.S. governmentÕs long history of conducting deadly military experiments, contains interviews with, what three or four people?
RILEY: Correct.
ICONOCLAST: Right, itÕs got two discs.
RILEY: That CD-ROM has about half the size of an encyclopedia worth of documents on it.
ICONOCLAST: What kind of documents?
RILEY: WeÕve got some Senate Veteran AffairÕs hearings that were never supposed to see the light of day. On Vietnam, we have got a document called, Agent Orange. It is a formerly classified report that nobody was ever to see, by Admiral Zumwalt, which basically tells everything that one needs to know about Agent Orange that the government has not told them., and anybody who is applying for an Agent Orange claim, which there is no such thing, as you know, because there was no such thing as an Agent Orange disability; but if they have Agent Orange poisoning and they want to get their claim in, this will really, really help them.
ICONOCLAST: Regarding the Senate Veterans Hearing, what was this about?
RILEY: This is the one that really opened my eyes.
You see, I was involved in 1991 as a flight nurse for the Air Force. I was a Captain in the Air Force inactive reserve, at the time. I went back to Kelly Air Force Base and made the decision to go back in because everybody in my unit had been called up and they said that if you donÕt come with us to be a flight nurse again, then you may be Army or Navy or whatever they need you for and I wanted to fly. ThatÕs what I did since 1979.
It was my goal to go back and be a flight nurse at Kelly Air Force Base when I was working at Houston, at the time, as a heart/lung/kidney transplant nurse. That was my real job, at Texas Heart Institute.
I wanted to participate. I was so pro-military, you cannot believe it. Military was everything. My father was a belly gunner on a B-17. My mother, who is now 80 years old, was in the Navy. You know, women werenÕt in the Navy that many years ago. She served as a WAVE in the Navy and so military was everything.
So in 1991, of course, there was no question as to whether I would go back again.
I received 10 shots in one day, which absolutely changed my life.
I became ill as a result of that, and by December of 1991, I was hospitalized with a disease called a demyelinating disease. They called it multiple sclerosis, but not quite. A lot of the nurses were becoming ill with this same thing, and having trouble walking and functioning.
But I continued to work, but I could not work and do the reserve also, so I had to drop out of my unit in San Antonio.
Like I said, by December/January 1991/1992, I was hospitalized and I was really sick at that time.
Well, low and behold, nobody had heard anything about a Gulf War illness. Certainly not me. Not anybody. So I had this bizarre disease, after I was playing MASH in the air for six months.
I did not deploy to the Middle East. I was a flight nurse aboard a C-130 aircraft and I flew from Alaska to Cuba because the week of the cease fire occurred when I was supposed to deploy to Saudi Arabia.
I continued to serve as back fill nurse, if you will, for the active duty nurses that had gone on and were serving over in Saudi Arabia. So the cease fire came and I continued to do missions and became, like I said, quite ill, as a result of that.
By 1993,1994, I was starting to feel better. I was starting to get a little bit of strength back. In Ô95, Ô96, I became really aware that there had been a massive cover up here because lots of people in the military were sick then. Nobody was talking about it. Certainly not the Department of Defense or the Veterans Administration.
I began to do some investigation. Now, concurrently, with my nursing career, I had also served as, not only a director of nursing of four institutions in San Antonio, but I had also been a medical malpractice legal nurse consultant and I had testified in about, I donÕt know how many trials, and depositions over medical malpractice issues. So I knew what it took to build a case.
I started to see that there was a cover-up because these troops were sick. They were dying. They were having bizarre illnesses, starting out with some of the same symptoms, all of them.
And the Department of Defense couldnÕt quite figure it out.
So, I begin this investigation and, low and behold, to answer your question of the Senate Report, I came across Senate Report 103-97, which literally changed my life.
As I understand, the Senate Veterans Affairs Committee report of this was only for Committee members. It was not supposed to be outside the Committee. In fact, there were only 30 copies printed up of this Senate Report, 103-97. And what I saw in there literally changed my life, like I said, because, it stated the following: "During the past 50 years, hundreds of thousands of our military have been experimented upon without their knowledge or consent."
I couldnÕt believe what I was reading. I had just given my life, basically, loving the military and supporting the military to an organization that was experimenting upon us.
When I read through Senate Report 103-97, which is, by the way, on the CD-ROM, it started talking about all the experiments that had been done on our military without their consent. I thought how arrogant to put this out here in front of everyoneÑit really was not for release to the public, though; but to show what had gone on during this time.
