Guest host and Illinois Review Editor-in-Chief Mark Vargas interviews one of the Red Hill victims – U.S. Army Major Mandy Feindt, who discusses the horrific side effects of jet fuel poisoning on her and her family, including over 600 doctors visits in 3 years and how senior military officials are retaliating against her for going public. 

In November 2021, a World War II-era underground U.S. military asset, The Red Hill Bulk Fuel Storage Facility – the largest in the U.S. that can hold up to 250 million gallons, began leaking poisonous jet fuel into the clean water supply – impacting 93,000 people at Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam and Aliamanu Military Reservation in Oahu, Hawaii. Unknown to the military families and residents at the time, the clean water that they were drinking, using for cooking, washing dishes and showering with – was poisoning them.

As a result of the jet fuel leak, thousands of military families began experiencing symptoms consistent with jet fuel poisoning – unbearable headaches, vomiting, diarrhea, rashes, nausea and fatigue – sending thousands of military families and their children to the emergency room numerous times with sudden and severe, long lasting health issues including neurological, dermal and mental (fear, anxiety, PTSD).

President Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama, Vice President Kamala Harris, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin and senior military officials continue to ignore the crisis and refuse to meet with the affected military families.
