ROTFLMAO, answer the question.

This was a 2-part study composed of the Capstone DU Aerosols Study, which analyzed DU aerosols produced in the Abrams tank and Bradley Fighting Vehicle struck by large-caliber DU munitions, and the Capstone DU Human Health Risk Assessment, which used data from the first phase to calculate radiation doses and possible DU concentrations in the body. This estimated the health effect to Service members from DU exposure through contact with tanks and vehicles struck with DU munitions. These studies demonstrated that vehicle ventilation systems are very effective in reducing potential DU exposures of personnel inside vehicles. The risk assessment predicted little or no impact on health of Service members who breathe in DU dust particles while inside tanks or other vehicles hit by DU munitions.

Exposure to Civilians to DU in the EnvironmentAny civilian exposures to DU in the environment would in nearly every case be lower than the amount of DU inhaled by Service members in a vehicle struck by DU. Based on the projection of military exposures and risks, these civilian exposures would result in little or no risk to health.
