US Census data: 420,000 Gulf War I troops on Disability, not
150,000 as cited

The fact of the troop shortage is that over half the Desert Storm army is on disability--Papa Bush and Rumsfeld armed Saddam.
Colin Powell gave orders for our troop to ignore their field alarms and sweat it out without protective gear. The DoD has simply lied and denied to avoid accountability, while our Vets suffer and die.
