I've often thought that the awesome noise of battle must cause damage,
but you never hear about it.  Until now...

You'd be surprised as to how many soldiers/veterans have T and hearing
loss due to extreme noise exposure during military duty.  Gun fire,
mortor fire, artillery fire, guns on ships firing, aircraft engine
noises, other vehicle noises.  Its very common!

Oh I guess the report is in error because it says: "There is no known
cure for tinnitus or hearing loss."  Well I know fyfpoon and janice(da
man in tights) have all kinds of cures.  Maybe they should come
forward and pass these miracles to the newsmedia and Department of
Veterans Affairs.  An email fromy fyfpoon's chinese boy scout friend
can be used as additional evidence.

Hi PT,

I once read a report, can't remember where, that 25% of the veterans
from Iraq suffer from tinnitus...

Best regards

Poorly educated people serve well for their country. They require no
standards or safety procedures or equipment.

Later we should reward them for their ignorance with a lay-around,
lazy, fat life because they did work hard for a few month or years.
Many deserve it and want it. It give them time to think up what to
whine about next.

The military strives for education.  You are always in training.
Whereas you, sitting in your panty hose toking on your crack pipe, are
a true burn out.

Reward them for your freedom too fool.
