Third, an admission of guilt would weaken the DoD’s credibility regarding controversial programs today. For example, the anthrax vaccine is mandatory for military personnel and civilians deploying to “high-threat” areas across the globe, including Iraq and Afghanistan, despite being linked to serious illnesses and even death among US service members. Quite conveniently, the quarterly analysis of medical care data for vaccinated service members was ended in 2002.
So as we honor our service members and veterans this Memorial Day, we must acknowledge the continuing battle many face to receive compensation for exposure to chemical/biological weapons long ago and to avoid potentially harmful vaccines today. Our troops deserve better.
