I recently lost a cousin who had health problems since his Desert Storm deployment. Maybe identifying the cause will help with medical treatment for so many more still experiencing problems.

The DoD has been fully involved, I’m grateful for their ownership of Gulf War Illness: https://cdmrp.army.mil/gwirp/pdfs/GWIRP_Landscape_2020.pdf

Good article needs the peer review to double check the methodology. And next studies is the marker test and how long does the sarin stay in the body. And will age affect the ability of that Gene's effectiveness. Thanks for the share.
