    It took a lot of figuring out what was wrong with me in the first place. I started out weighing in at 185 pounds before the Gulf War. When I left in April 1991 after being there since August 1990, I weighed at 155 pounds. When I came home the wife and kids thought I was crazy because of the out of the normal things I would do. For instance, challenge or dare to try and cut me off on the freeway and you're dead meat. Leaving my duce gear still in my willy peter bag. MOPP Gear and all. Back in the rear with the REMF's all they did was having Dog & Pony shows and field exercises in the back yard of the C.P. and talking $hit about what they did and how they watched CNN during the war. Anyway after 19 years later and a dozen appeals I finally got rated for what I thought I should have been back in 1994. So, bottom line is keep fighting for your entitlements and earned benefits. I can't work anymore because of all of my disabilities and more. J. K. K.
