First Gulf War still claims = lives=20

Murray proposes removing = time limit for=20 reporting illness

SEATTLE=20 POST-INTELLIGENCER REPORTER

Fifteen years ago today, Operation Desert Storm began, first with an = air war,=20 then a Feb. 23 allied ground attack that steamrolled across Iraq in four = days.

The initial casualties were few. But they continue. They have drawn = the=20 attention of members of Congress, and now one Washington senator = believes they=20 demand further investigation.

Over the years, raw data from the Veterans Benefits Administration = suggest=20 more than 11,000 of the 696,841 veterans who served in the Persian Gulf = have=20 died from various injuries and illnesses, and more than 256,000 have = filed=20 claims against the government for veterans compensation or medical care. =

Though the federal agency cautions that the data are raw and not = reflective=20 of mortality rates, "it's significant because it's ... more than the = casualty=20 rates post-Vietnam," Skip Dreps said.

A Vietnam veteran, Dreps serves as government relations director for = the=20 Northwest chapter of the Paralyzed Veterans of America service = organization.

Gulf War veterans have battled the government over recognition and = care for=20 mystifying illnesses, especially neurological disorders linked to = exposure to=20 chemical poisons during and after the war.

Brain cancer deaths, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (commonly known as = Lou=20 Gehrig's disease) and fibromyalgia now are recognized by the Defense and = Veterans Affairs departments as potentially connected to service during = the=20 Persian Gulf War.

In September, the Seattle P-I reported about a number of cases of = multiple=20 sclerosis among Gulf War vets. And now Sen. Patty Murray has proposed=20 legislation to have those cases investigated.

Since the disease can take a long time to manifest itself, Murray = also has=20 proposed in a bill to remove the seven-year limit veterans have after = leaving=20 the service to report the illness and get government help. Removing the = limit=20 would apply to those in combat service in the war.

The government's seven-year line in the sand doesn't make sense = because=20 veterans "may not come down with it (multiple sclerosis) in seven years, = it may=20 be 10 or 15 years," she said.

Murray notes that the VA's "MS Center of Excellence" has said there = is=20 "considerable evidence that MS precedes symptoms in most patients."

"Most patients with MS have several lesions (shown on an) MRI at the = time of=20 their first symptom," she said.

"It's a very difficult and debilitating disease and is often not = diagnosed=20 early -- and I know personally because my dad had MS," Murray said = recently.

Murray, a member of the Veterans Committee, said she will begin = soliciting=20 support for her bill when Congress goes back into session Wednesday.

While there are no official numbers of Gulf War veterans with MS, the = 500=20 veterans who signed onto a support group at MSVets@Yahoogroups.com, = general=20 government figures and anecdotal information from others merit study, = she=20 said.

"It seems to me that the numbers are high enough and the scientific = evidence=20 is enough that we should err on the side of the veterans in this," = Murray=20 said.

Julie Mock, 38, of Woodinville, a Gulf War veteran with MS, calls = Murray's=20 support "a godsend. It validates what we've been saying."

Mock is president of the non-profit National Gulf War Resource Center = and an=20 advocate for fellow veterans.

Of the estimated 11,000 Gulf War veterans who have died since 1991, = more than=20 2,700 served within the Il Khamisiyah area of Iraq.

Sarin nerve gas was released into the air there after U.S. forces = destroyed=20 Iraqi munitions in March 1991. More than 145,000 U.S. troops, a smaller = number=20 of allied troops and unknown numbers of Iraqis and others were exposed = in the=20 resulting widespread plume.

Mock was one of them.

"It's disturbing," she says of the death statistics from all causes. = "I have=20 to say I often wonder whose funeral I'm going to go to.

"Every time you hear about somebody dying, you hear that they were = too young=20 to die, or chronically ill and were stabilized that way for a while and = then=20 died quickly. And they are a variety of ages."

MS involves an attack upon the central nervous system. Myelin, the = protective=20 covering around nerves, is destroyed. Scar tissue called sclerosis = remains,=20 resulting in a diverse range of painful, debilitating and baffling = symptoms=20 ranging from fatigue to numbness or blindness.

The problem is determining when MS stems from environmental or other = sources.=20

Illnesses among Gulf War veterans have been studied and debated for = the past=20 15 years, at first as "Gulf War Syndrome." Studies have been conducted = in allied=20 countries that had fewer troops than the United States, including = Britain,=20 Canada and New Zealand.

Here, Congress created the Research Advisory Committee on Gulf War = Veterans'=20 Illnesses in 1998. First appointed by Secretary of Veterans Affairs = Anthony=20 Principi in January 2002, its mission is to make recommendations = concerning=20 government research relating to the health consequences of military = service in=20 Southwest Asia during the Persian Gulf War.

In November, veterans testified at an oversight hearing chaired by = U.S. Rep.=20 Christopher Shays, R-Conn., to discuss whether the VA was fulfilling its = legal=20 mandate to make determinations about Gulf War illnesses.

As the veterans arrived in D.C. spoiling to have their say, however, = the VA=20 announced it was funding 12 new research projects to better understand = Gulf War=20 illnesses.

A month later, the government announced that $15 million a year for = five=20 years was being earmarked in the 2006 budget for specific research into = Gulf War=20 illnesses.

Dreps said he and other veterans representatives are angry, feeling = the=20 announcements were politically rather than scientifically inspired to = blunt=20 veterans' critical testimony.

While "something good may come from the research projects," Dreps = said,=20 "shame on us" as a nation for allowing Gulf War veterans to be treated = so for 15=20 years.

"Shame on us," he said.
