Below are training videos or material that is available for training military personnel, to include medical personnel, on the hazards of DU.

This training is NOT being implemented.

According to an OSAGWI staffer during a briefing at the Pentagon on April 15, 1999, OSAGWI has formed a "Tri-Service Working Group" to try get Commanders of the services to take this training more seriously.

The briefer also stated there was no training material yet available for military medical personnel, yet they had a "video on the streets" that they could use for training. Unfortunately, this "video on the streets" is not specific to DU exposures or wounds by DU.

Below is a listing on training material available to military medical personnel as of December 1998.
