I understand that. However, with the exception of the GG shot, I maneged to avoid the rest of the shots. I was in the Eighty Duece at the time and
spent a lot of time at Pope prior to the official alert.
I never took the PB tabs either...so far, I seem to be fairly healthy, with the exception of getting older and the various pain that entails.
I guess I was a conspiracy theorist way back when. I just didn't trust them.
OK sorry no probs bro. Funny, well not so funny anymore my memory is getting worse, but I don't remember what shots I actually got, and my medical
record from my complete service is missing, along with many other GW vets. So technically even though I have been diagnosed, because I have symptoms
they can find no cause for, I am only guessing it's the vaccine because there is no alternative. It could have been the Navy chow for all I know lol.
I do know that where I was stationed was close to a major distribution point for the vaccine, and I know we got shots before we deployed. But then
that baked tuna & noodles could be pretty brutal...
In the army I hated Chicken for ten years.
But in a sense, I was lucky, I was a Air Force brat and my Dad told me to always maintain my own personnal copy of my admin and nedical files. (He
learned the hard way when his records was a fire in St. Louis.
I listened to him and have passed on that wisdom to every Soldier I have ever met.
It has paided off for me...though not without bumps in the road.
There are always those who say, "Prove it."
At which point, I have my documentation. That is key.
