I did not get injured in combat or anything like that. I fit right in with the "Gulf War Syndrome" guys as I collapsed with a 106 fever within 48 hours (roughly) of having over a dozen "inoculations" right at the beginning of the 1st Gulf War in August 1990. I spent 7-10 days in a hospital, delirious with VIOLENT jackhammer chills ravaging my body, which served to amplify the pain I felt in my body, especially head.
