@ Celebrindan- It’s my understanding that they were told there was no radiation leaking to be concerned about so no need to don protective suits. That is one of the points of the lawsuit: that Japanese officials withheld the truth about how bad it actually was so it exposed these Navy personnel to the radiation. I’m sure they would have taken precautions if they had been told the truth.
Those soldiers cleaning up with the brooms and mops, were i their own personal uniforms, not in protective suits that would be destroyed or disposed of after the event.
