Yup, that is also one of the problems with DU that has everyone so upset from a contamination standpoint. A sizable portion of the penatrator melts and vaporizes, scattering tiny DU all over the battlefield. If you ingest or inhale the stuff and get it stuck in your body that ain't so good. While the radiation isn't good by any means, it is really the heavy metal properties (just like mercury) that are a real bitch. I don't think I would want to live around southern Iraq when a sand storm kicked up.
