A group of US Air Force veterans from the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) have publicly shared that their exposure to radiation at Area 51 resulted in severe health issues, including cancer. They allege betrayal by the US government, with claims that over 490 workers have died of related illnesses since being stationed there. The Department of Veterans Affairs has denied medical coverage due to a lack of proof of radiation exposure, further compounding their issues. Many veterans report multiple tumors, and some effects may have been passed to their families.
David Crete, a former Air Force Sergeant who worked at NTTR from 1983 through 1987, said that over 490 of his fellow workers have died of severe illnesses since being stationed at the secret facility. 'I have brain atrophy. The left side of my brain is shrinking and dying. That's not too bad. I'm one of the healthy ones,' Crete told the House Veterans Affairs Committee in April while lobbying for legislation to support the Area 51 veterans. The average age of death for someone who served in that unit is 65 and the youngest airman to die was just 33.
The former security guards at the Nevada Test and Training Range (NTTR) have claimed that the US government betrayed them and essentially handed them a death sentence without their knowledge. The Air Force veteran was unaware of anyone who worked at NTTR who had lived beyond the age of 80. Making matters worse, the US Department of Veterans Affairs has refused to cover their medical care because none of the surviving veterans can prove they were exposed to radiation near Area 51.
