Residents Suspect Cancer Cluster Near Fort Detrick, MD.

In a column in the Washington Post (8/6), Petula Dvorak writes, “Over their fences, at community picnics but mostly at funerals, the people of one Frederick neighborhood near Fort Detrick wondered whether it was just a horrible coincidence that so many of them had cancer.”

They “immediately looked to their former next-door neighbor, Fort Detrick, where anthrax and Agent Orange were studied for decades and where about 400 acres known as Area B were used for storage and dumping.”

Scientists “determined that vapors rising through the ground from the discarded chemicals had seeped into the” home of Randy White. White “is considering a class-action lawsuit against the Army.”
