Excerpt from Persian Gulf War Veterans and Related Issues: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations of the Committee on Veterans' Affairs, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, First Session; June 9, 1993
There have been others like me that have been able to maintain their jobs, but it has been under extreme pressure. Some have been harassed like I have by my work place. My boss keeps tell me, Well, Show me in writing what is wrong With you. I cannot do that. The VA cannot do it. The Navy cannot do it. So I do not have an answer to give to him.
But because of certain problems that I have, like memory loss and the tremors, I have had paper work discrepancies, and I have received letters and days off from work. Others in my unit have been eradicated out of the military because of their problems.
Gene Trucks, a fine fellow that used to work for me over at Saudi Arabia when I was there, he is losing his mind, and he is getting worse every day. We need to do something about it. We may not be able to repair him, but there are others that are going to be just like him.
