CASE NARRATIVES, INFO PAPERS ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE REPORTS CURRENT NEWS HELP FOR VETERANS ... E-MAIL M essage from the S pecial A ssistant for G ulf W ar I llnesses On April 24, 2003, we released the final version of the Pesticides Environmental Exposure Report about the use of pesticides and the potential for overexposure to pesticides by servicemembers during the 1990-1991 Gulf War. An interim report was published in January 2001 to update veterans on what has been learned during the course of our investigation. Analysts from the Deployment Health Support Directorate concluded that some troops may have been potentially overexposed to pesticides and that this may have contributed to some of the unexplained symptoms reported by some Gulf War veterans. However, there is little documentation that quantifies Gulf War pesticide overexposures and veteran interviews suggest that less than 10 veterans sought treatment for pesticide exposure. Since publishing the interim report, our office has received no new information that would have changed its conclusion. Although this is a final report, veterans who have information they believe may change this environmental report are encouraged to call the toll-free Veterans Direct Hotline number at (800) 497 - 6261 Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., Eastern Standard Time.

Gulf War Illnesses Research
Studies on Gulf War Illnesses: Chronic Infections Identification of Mycoplasmal Infections in Gulf War Illness Patients: Scientists at The Institute for Molecular Medicine have found that slightly under one-half of the very sick Gulf War Illness patients in a pilot study with the signs and symptoms of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome or Fibromyalgia have chronic invasive infections involving certain uncommon mycoplasmas, such as Mycoplasma fermentans (incognitus strain). This has now been confirmed in a large Department of Defense - Department of Veterans' Affairs clinical trial. Staff at The Institute for Molecular Medicine have recommended that these infections can be successfully treated with certain antibiotics, allowing the recovery of patients who have been long-term disabled. Similarly, in ongoing preliminary studies on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibomyalgia patients, we have found that a subset of patients have mycoplasmal infections that can be successfully treated with antibiotics, allowing patients to recover from their illnesses. Identification of Other Infections in Gulf War Illness Patients: The Institute for Molecular Medicine has been engaged in examining the blood of Gulf War Illness, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and Fibromyalgia patients for chronic infections that could explain their clinical conditions. So far, in preliminary research we have found that some patients have microorganism infections, such as those caused by

Abstract An assessment was conducted of the impact of infectious diseases on the 697,000 U.S. troops deployed to the Persian Gulf during 1990-1991 in Operations Desert Shield and Desert Storm. The incidence of nonbattle injuries, including infectious diseases, during this conflict was lower than during previous wars involving U.S. military personnel. The major reported causes of morbidity were generally mild cases of acute diarrheal and upper respiratory disease. The most unexpected outcome was the lack of arboviral infections, particularly sandfly fever, and the occurrence among U.S. troops of 12 cases of visceral leishmaniasis due to

Talking Points on Creation of DCI Persian Gulf War Illnesses Task Force
To support the President in his goal of getting to the bottom of questions regarding Persian Gulf War veterans' illnesses and to be as helpful as we can to this Advisory Committee in its intensified effort, the Acting Director of Central Intelligence, George Tenet, established a Persian Gulf War Illnesses Task Force, which began its work on March 3. Its mission is to provide intensive, aggressive intelligence support to the numerous US government efforts to address Persian Gulf War Illnesses issues. As to its scope, this task force will manage all intelligence aspects of the issue with the goal to "get to the bottom" of it and to be "forthcoming" in our efforts. Throughout this 60-day effort, and by the conclusion thereof, the task force will ensure that every conceivable stone has been overturned. The task force includes 50 personnel drawn from across CIA's Directorates, as well as from DIA, NSA, NIMA, and others in the Department of Defense.

RELATED Gulf War veterans suing companies for chemical exports DALLAS, Texas (CNN) – As U.N. inspectors search Iraq for weapons of mass destruction – including chemical weapons – a U.S. researcher may be on the way to unraveling the mystery of Gulf War illnesses, and he says the ailment may be linked to low levels of chemical agents. Gulf War illnesses include a collection of symptoms such as chronic fatigue, skin rashes, muscle and joint pain, memory loss and confusion. The Department of Defense says about 20,000 veterans suffer from those illnesses. Veterans' advocates say the number is tens of thousands higher. The Presidential Advisory Committee on Gulf War Veterans' Illnesses declared in 1996 that "Stress is likely to be an important contributing factor to the broad range of illnesses currently being reported by gulf war veterans." Other possible, physiological causes were discounted. Dr. Robert Haley of the Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas, Texas, says the stress theory is wrong, dead wrong.

NEW REVELATION SURFACES ABOUT
GULF WAR II “MYSTERY ILLNESS”
The American Gulf War Veterans Association (AGWVA), an independent Gulf War Veterans’ support organization, has long searched for answers to explain why nearly half of the 697,000 Gulf War I Veterans are now ill and why over 200,000 of those servicemen/women have requested disability, but have received no adequate diagnosis or treatment, from either the Department of Defense (DOD), or Veteran’s Affairs. Though there have been over 125 studies done by the government at the cost of over $300,000,000 to the taxpayer, we still have no answers as to what caused so many of our soldiers to become ill. Meanwhile, the suffering veterans are receiving little, if any, medical treatment for this illness. It seems that whenever veterans become ill, the term “mystery illness” seems to be the first and often the only diagnosis that is ever made. Veterans are then left to fend for themselves, sick and unable to work, with little hope of a normal life again. Contrary to the “pneumonia” and “mystery illness” labels, enlightening information surfaced today on “THE POWER HOUR” radio show (

I am Joyce Riley, and I am here because I love my God and I love my country, and I love my fellow man. We are going to hear a story tonight that unfortunately is the saddest story, not only of the 20th century, but of America's history. You are going to hear about the destruction of the United States military. I am sorry to have to bring you this story. I wish it wasn't true. I wish that I could protect you from what you are going to hear tonight, because it has taken me a year to investigate this story. During that time, I went through the worst depression you can imagine. I finally came to the conclusion one day that - yes, our country had provided the biologicals to Saddam Hussein that were used on our troops.

UT Southwestern team traces Gulf War illnesses to chemicals: Three primary syndromes identified
Contact: Kris Mullen
or e-mail: kmulle@mednet.swmed.edu WASHINGTON — Jan. 8, 1997 — Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center at Dallas have concluded that some Gulf War veterans are suffering from three primary syndromes indicating brain and nerve damage caused by wartime exposure to combinations of low-level nerve agents and other common chemicals. The findings are published as a set of three articles in the Jan. 15 issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association. "Each of the JAMA articles solves a different piece of the puzzle that has baffled previous researchers of these mysterious illnesses," said Dr. Robert Haley, chief of epidemiology and the study's principal investigator. "Our findings provide the first evidence of associations between symptoms in Gulf War veterans and exposures to chemicals, including chemical nerve agents." By conducting an exhaustive series of epidemiological and clinical studies on veterans from a U.S. Navy reserve unit, the UT Southwestern researchers identified a syndrome characterized by thought, memory and sleep difficulties; a second syndrome that involves more severe thought problems as well as confusion and imbalance; and a third syndrome of sore joints and muscles and tingling or numbness in the hands and feet.
