Or just the start of a number of added negative health issues from each or both theaters of operations!
Some soldiers from Iraq have lung problems
I just caught this and apparently it was posted about an hour ago.
Some soldiers returning from Iraq have been diagnosed with bronchiolitis, a disease affecting the small airways of the lung, U.S. researchers said.
Some of you Iraq Vets may want to look into this before it gets hidden from the view of the public.
Most of those diagnosed with bronchiolitis had a prolonged exposure to sulfur dioxide from a sulfur mine fire near Mosul, Iraq, in 2003. However, several had no known specific exposures. The mine fire is considered the largest ever man-made release of sulfur dioxide and was 100 times greater than the release from Mount St. Helen's volcano.
There isn't much about this in the report at the link, the above are just a couple of quotes from, but you might want to check it out and further research this.
Wether this could be really serious or just some blip, it should be looked at before the Government start spinning it or buries it!
