RE: Chernobyl Revisited - 30 Years After

in #story9 years ago

After the explosion soldier were offered a years pay and their family's a pension if they spent 60 seconds picking up radioactive fuel rods to drop back into the reactor core.

All the RoBOTS from Britain and America sent to help did not do any useful work. Many of these volunteer soldiers were deceased within one year.

The concrete tomb was designed to have many openings in it for maintenance reasons and reactors 1 & 2 remained in service with technicians for many years . . .

Sort:  

They should had been given life's pay considering the risk.

Yes they should have; who really knows if their family's ever got all the pensions...
