WWII Veteran Rollins Edwards sat before the Federal Board of Veterans Appeals wearing a long overcoat, Black beret, and dark glasses.
He was finally ready to tell his story-one that most people hadn\'t heard; a story he once vowed never to discuss until now....
He couldn\'t remain silent any longer.
But enough was enough.
The torture.
The chemicals.
The secret experiments.
Army officials had threatened him with prison if he ever discussed what happened to him at Camp Claiborne, Louisiana.
The smell.
Rotten skin.
Blood.
The previous night, his skin had begun deteriorating-literally falling off his body into small piles on the hotel carpet.
It wasn\'t a fashion statement but a necessity for protecting his hypersensitive skin from the cool air conditioning.
