I served in the MFO in 1992 and we burned all of our trash and waste in burn pits, specifically on the outposts. The VA does not even offer for us to register despite six month deployments. Several of my coworkers deployed there more than once. Not sure how to bring this to the VA's attention.

I was there in the 80’s. 2nd unit to deploy 1/502 from Ft. Campbell. I filed intent to file. All my C&P exams ask about toxic exposure. I told them we burned in the Sinai. Not sure if did any good but still working on it with the VFW

I was with the second unit with the 101st in 82. We did a lot of burning with no face cover
