Why do troops in combat use burn pits? Is there even a better alternative? The military admitted to exposing 3.5 million veterans to toxic waste by burning it with jet fuel right next to where troops lived. Now the health problems and issues associated with breathing those toxic fumes from the open air burn pits is becoming clear to everyone. Why did the army decide to do such a destructive thing? Was there a better option and if there wasn't can a solution something be developed in the future?

Several acts of congress have been passed to help the veteran affairs hospital identify register and care for injured veterans but with 78% of claims being denined who knows if that will work.
