served in our nations armed forces, it is a time for the American people, through their government, to rededicate themselves to caring for those who sacrificed for freedom especially those who were irreparably scarred because they willingly stood in harms way." Commander Smith went on to say, "The American peoples moral covenant with veterans is reflected also in tangible tributes to veterans sacrifice, such as the new "Honoring Veterans" stamp and the National World War II Memorial. I will be honored this Veterans Day to these health problems, but have thus far not identified a unique "Gulf War Syndrome," or determined how these conditions may be linked to experiences in the Gulf War.
The Kansas study, reported in the November 15 issue of The American Journal of Epidemiology, identified a pattern of symptoms strongly associated with Gulf War service. "Individually, these symptoms can resemble the kinds of health problems wed see in any group of adults," said Dr. steele. "What is different in Gulf War veterans is the pattern in which these symptoms occur - a pattern of multiple different types of symptoms together, symptoms which first began during or after the Gulf War, and often persist for years. We used Gulf War Illness as an umbrella term for these overlapping problems, since symptoms can vary from person to person."

Auxiliary
Ashle y Duft
While originally organized to assist The American Legion, the Auxiliary has achieved its own unique identity while working side-byside with the veterans who belong to The American Legion. While the Auxiliary is considered a separate entity, the cooperation shared throughout the Post makes it feel more like one big family. We hope you will join our family and become a member of the American Legion Auxiliary. The Auxiliary meets nd on the 2 Monday each month at 7:00 pm after Burger Night.
