Chester Deanes, left, and Ben Phillips hold a photo of the former Pruitt-Igoe housing development in St. Louis, where they lived growing up on Sept. 7, 2023. The Army sprayed a potential carcinogen from the tops of buildings and from station wagons in the area around Pruitt-Igoe in the 1950s and 1960s as part of secret Cold War-era testing. Deanes and Phillips are leading an effort to get government compensation. (AP Photo/Jim Salter)
