The article reports that President Donald Trump signed into law the Aviator Cancer Examination Study (ACES) Act, aimed at investigating cancer rates among current and former military pilots and aircrew members. This legislation builds upon an Air Force study that found elevated cases of melanoma, thyroid cancer, and prostate cancer among military aviators. The ACES Act mandates the Department of Veterans Affairs too study cancer and mortality rates<\/a> specifically for aircrew members from the Navy, Air Force, and Marine Corps to better understand potential links between military service and certain cancers. The bill was introduced by Senators Mark Kelly (D-Arizona) and Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas), both veterans, and has received bipartisan and veteran group support. Advocates emphasize that the law will help provide timely diagnoses<\/a>, specialized screenings, and improved care for military aviators affected by cancer.
