It seems like this used to get a reasonable amount of attention prior to September 11th. :|

I dunno if there was ever any concrete proof or any lasting edict made concerning folks suffering from GWS, but it would seem a little...well.. minor league (please, no disrespect intended, all right?) nowadays, compared with some present-day troops rotaring back for a THIRD tour of duty in the Sandbox, when the Desert Shield/Storm vets were only in country for a considerably shorter time frame. It would be neat to hear from someone currently deployed over there, to hear what sort of "official" stance has been adopted in regards to this issue. New Innoculations, Lack of Oil-fires this time around, More informed choices for troops, ...Tell us what you reckon.... Do you know anyone in your unit that declined getting a jab? (we've all seen the news of the objectors refusing, but what about REAL people that some of you actually know? Anyone?....Anyone?.... Bueller.... Anyone?....

I could google it, but I wanna know what the MP.Net gang think of this.....
