Maj Gibson, I hear that you were trying to get in touch with me, I tried calling but I couldn't get through. What happened was we had an old Japanese fire bomb that we had dug up and burnt out on our diposal range. I was moving the tail fins out of the way and got about a dime size drop of the jellied kerosene on the front of my flight suit, I wiped it off with my gloves and didn't think much about it. The next morning when I woke up I had huge blisters on my stomach, arm, and junk, I also had smaller ones on my neck and face. NBC went out to the range to test the kerosene it came back negetive for blister agents. The consenses at medical was that fumes from the residue left on my clothes soaked in to my skin and burnt me pretty good, I got admitted in to the hospital cause my dick was so swollen I couldn't piss. I made it out and I plan on being back at work within two weeks. I included a picture of the bomb taken after we first found it. I'll let you go, thanks for the Kilo love.
