| 61 years
ago today
When I was a kid the
marking of June 6 1944 was a big event. Newspapers were full of veterans
accounts of the day and it was talked about in school. Seemed most of
the fathers had been in WWII. 
Today I searched the paper for any mention of D-Day , finally on page 6
was a two paragraph blurb. My Dad landed there this day 61 years ago. I
ain't forgot Dad and I'll make sure Johnny knows about this day. Salute
to all our soldiers present and passed. Thank You

| yes, a
big day
I wasn't born yet,
not until Oct, 1945 after the war was over ... but this was a big day
from the history documentaries
I do now suspect that there is a
lot of unsuspected 'fall out' from WWII ... since I am one of the
baby boomers ... and since my father served in the Navy during WWII on a
torpedoed ship. (The changes in his personality; his early death from
'heart attack' my brother's being born with only one testicle; my
fibroid uterine tumors, Syndrome
X, extra skin growths, concern for one ovary, type 2 adult onset
diabetes)
I never would have suspected so many health ailments that started up
after WWII could be late appearing 'birth defects' from our parents who
served in that war ...
until I saw some other documentaries ... and had looked into the harm of
2-butoxyethanol which is part
of rocket propellants - even in that day ... and in cleaning
compounds used to clean all types of weapons.
Mists in eyes ... that's a major exposure
Brain tumors and
leukemia is what this chemical can do ... and Diabetes
type 2 should be suspect for its 'aftermath' too Even the children
that are born with autoimmune issues today can be 2nd and 3rd
generations that are affected. More and more young people are being
diagnosed with IBS according to the news comments I heard yesterday on
abc7 out of CA
They can get their own exposure to this chemical either directly or
indirectly ... and then the birth defect aspect only.
But I ask, it is so prevalent in our society ... warnings are not
adequate, and EPA
has lifted restrictions on it for manufacturers? We are harming our
own ... and we don't even know it
For whom does the bell toll? It tolls for thee
THE
FATIGUE 
Who
I am
