History in the Making
In the early 1930s the potential for nuclear fission was discovered. Scientists like Albert Einstein and Leo Szilard became concerned that Nazi Germany might develop nuclear weapons. This lead to both scientists penning a letter to then President Franklin D. Roosevelt urging the U.S. to begin atomic research, fearing that Germany might be working on its own atomic bomb. Following this the U.S. government formed the advisory committee on uranium to explore nuclear research.
The Project Begins
The official start to what is now known as the Manhattan Project initiated in 1942 under the direction of Lieutenant General Leslie Groves and scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer. The project was named after the Manhattan Engineering District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
The Project started in three key locations across the U.S. The goal being to not have all of the testings and materials in one location in the event of a spy. Those facilities are Los Alamos, New Mexico, Oak Ridge, Tennessee and Hanford, Washington.
Atomic Workers Today
Today Atomic Workers are still dealing with illnesses and impairments from their work at the nuclear weapons sites across the nation. While radiation exposure is limited because of current safety requirements and measures. Many Atomic Workers experience a vast exposure to chemicals that result in such diagnoses as Parkinson's, Parkinsonism, Dementia, Chronic Kidney Disease, respiratory diagnosis and some even hastening the genetic predisposure to develop diabetes and hypertension. At Atomic Workers Alliance we have dedicated staff with over a decade of experience in the EEOCIPA program to help guide former and current atomic workers receive their benefits.
