We had a flt cdr pilot on 360 in the late 60s, whom I have subsequently learned was on nuclear sampling, and allegedly committed suicide as a result of radiation sickness. His widow has been seen in the media as one of the leading "nuclear test victim" campaigners. Are there any other instances of aircrew casualties as a result of nuclear testing/sampling duties?
