All of the VA stuff aside, Depleted Uranium rounds were around before the gulf war.

It's remotely possible that airmen that serviced certain aircraft cannon were exposed, due to the residue left in the weapon barrels.

Let's just say that I stayed away from areas on fighter bases used to do such things in the late 70's.

I can attest to depleted uranium rounds before the gulf war. After the initial George Bush Sr. led ground assault, I entered intot the military as an 11M. I operated Bradley fighting vehicles, fired the main gun, and removed excess shells and misfired rounds from my vehicle. I can literally state that I have removed HUNDREDS of rounds from the vehicle and fired hundreds more. This is why I have filed a claim for a lung condition. i entered the military running a 11:54 two mile and left with strange crap in my lungs. We will see after i have a non military doctor look at it.
