Every town has a story. If we re-examine those stories, can we find a better path forward? On Tomorrow Town, Tennessee we are telling the stories of the people who call the Tennessee Valley home with a specific emphasis on military veterans.
If you really pay attention, can you find answers that have been hiding in plain sight all along?
Tomorrow Town, Tennessee is a production of NewsChannel 9, Fox Chattanooga, and Sinclair Broadcast Group Chattanooga.
News Channel 9's Josh Roe has been following the story of the people who were on ground zero of the atomic clean-up mission in the late 70's in the Marshall Islands for more than a year. Josh's award winning reporting on the clean-up continues with a recent trip to a reunion of these military veterans and civilian contractors in North Georgia. He talks to more than a dozen of the men who filled the Cactus Crater with radioactive debris in the late 1970's. Hear their first hand accounts of the dangerous work they did with very little protective equipment and how their health has suffered since.
