In my unit, one big guy pbutted out (BEFORE he got the first injection). Two guys got lacerations when they flinched under the needleless injectors. That was out of 60 men. No actual adverse reactions that I was ever aware of. If there were any long-term consequences, they were probably blamed on agent orange. By the way, we were also run single-file naked through a long shed where guys with gas masks beat us with pillows full of powdered DDT. No ill effects from that either. No ukus survived, though.

Rich, It would be better to test them for medical problems 10 years after they were exposed to all of those things. I recall watching a television show about 15 years ago. They took a camera crew to Viet Nam. They showed hundreds of little children that had missing arms and legs. A doctor on the camera crew tested the blood of those children. The doctor concluded that the handicaps were caused by exposure to agent orange. Those children were not born until after the war but the food they ate was grown on soil that was contaminated with agent orange and the water supply (from the river) had high levels of agent orange. They showed children playing and swimming in that river. They ate fish from that same river. Jason ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
