Atomic Vets were wounded during FRIENDLY FIRE by invisible bullets of radiation.
Are Military personal now considered for decorations, awards or Purple Hearts during Top Secret operations in the past?
If the answer is,"Yes," it would greatly help the Atomic Veterans to have a Purple Heart status at their local VA to expedite their claims.
The USS Curtiss AV4 Atomic Marines , Thank you
