Personally, I intend on going down like my idol — George Burns — drinking whiskey and smoking cigars when I’m 100 and laughing at the poor people who still died young while never actually enjoying life. But with all the things I get to report on, my concerns for my health and well-being tend not to revolve around the more accepted cancer-causing vices.
In the Vietnam era, our veterans developed some
major health issues because of the use of Agent Orange. My wife’s uncle
died from the long-term health effects caused by Agent Orange, and all
the Vietnam veterans I know who were exposed have serious health issues
because of it.
For some of us slightly younger guys, the next
big concern was the forced application of anthrax shots. Quite a few
veterans developed symptoms of what was labeled Gulf War Syndrome, a
medical condition causing fatigue, chronic headaches and skin and
respiratory disorders. Some of the long-term side effects of the anthrax
shot series are very similar.
