I was Active Duty in the Persian Gulf and the military was ordering all personnel to take the Anthrax series of shots.
There were 3 separate shots, and left a lump the size of a golfball at the injection site that lasted a week.
Anyone who refused was threatened with Court Martial and Dishonorable Discharge. Many of us took it under threat.
Fast forward to today ;
-Many of us have muscle issues in which tissue seems to dissolve.
- Many have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
- Couple that with other psyche issues.
The VA has made it difficult to pinpoint Chronic Fatigue and it is almost impossible to claim it as a disability.
So much of this garbage has been tested on the people who swore an oath to the country.... Someone needs to be held accountable.

They gave us a shot during my extremely short and weird ass tenure. Didn't even put it on the papers, said they were but then listing it as something else, then not, WEIRD shit but still here mofos. Clean those ranks at the GITMO

It wasn't just the vax...
They had many of us on an asbestos program which monitored our lungs. THey discontinued it in 2002. All records were purged from medical.

Our treatment of our military...in EVERY WAY...is appalling. When we say, "Thank you for your service." We refer to those years in direct service. Many of us are not aware of the entire lifetime of illnesses, injustices and neglect that follow.
