What headlines do you refer to?? msi, radi was speaking of the dangers of vapors that occurred when the shells impacted. Not the handling of depleted uranium projectiles. Pu-238 ???? what 'd that... Pu is the symbol for plutonium.

By the numbers. Depleted Uranium used by the US military contains 1/4 the isotope u-238 as natural uranium. Overall it is 40% less radio active then natural uranium. vzajic.tripod.com

So I do wonder what all the blather is about....
