  Hello,

    Some time ago I have read the a high ranking US naval officer visited
a Soviet ship (probably a cruiser) with nuclear propulsion.

    After the visit, the officer underwent a medical checkup, the result of
which showed that during the visit he was exposed to MORE radiation that
during his entire carrer on US "nuclear" ships.

    Can anyone substantiate this story?

        Thanks,
        Marc A. Volovic, Sgt (res.)
