By the 1960's the evidence was clear that the over 300 atmospheric massive nuclear explosions (by the US alone) were going to result in over 20,000,000 cancer deaths. The wisdom that prevailed sent the nukes underground which still leak but not as bad.

I have seen the goverment docu,mentaries/propoganda films that alled the people would in the future die from the tests already done as the heros of the cold war.

The 1960-1980 1000% rise in childhood leukemia isn't heroic to me.
