In the Gulf the forward troops were issued the white PB tablets never tried on humans before. Closer to the oil well fires and sand storms sweeping off the battlefield. With that said all the pollutants were heading south and then out to sea. Many were affected by GWI. The first officer I knew was solid got sick. We were MLRS and close to almost every major battle. We fired more rockets than any other MLRS Battalion and we were National Guard!
