    While Active duty I performed custom duty on returning military aircraft and military equipment returning from the Gulf War. The military said "it was decontaminated" before returning to the US. I can tell you it was NOT!. I have multiple symptoms associated with GWI and have tried to be put on the Gulf War Registry and have filed several Va claims citing cross contamination but all have been denied as i was not "in -country"! I recently found where the did approve Vietnam Era Vets approval for cross contamination of Agent Orange from air craft from 1969-1986 and they even found a C-123 Air Craft from 1969 that had agent orange residue in 2009! so I KNOW cross contamination is possible. Has anyone else ran across any data or reports that would support cross contamination or that did customs on returning military equipment? Thanks!
