so if one small grenade caused death to so many animals, what impact had thousands of DC? or a single sunk tanker?
Pearl Harbor, I hear also that sunken ships there are still leaking liquids, that’s 66 years ago.
I’ve seen Afghanistan’s grenade fishing in a lake and they were pulling out large ones and a lot of them
