I have a son. He is now 53 years old. He has had migraine headaches since the early 1990’s. He has had a heart valve replaced and 2 bypasses last year. He was 19 years old in 1991 and joined the Army. He was 2 weeks out of bootcamp and was shipped to Kuwait. Him and several others in an armed personnel carrier went down the road to Baghdad, past all the burning oil wells spewing benzene gases! Past burn pits with toxic smoke! He was a hero for America along with his fellow soldiers who have also had issues. These were proud soldiers who were affected by all this, and the VA would not recognize the cause of their illnesses!
