Vietnam Vets : Maybe NOT dioxin?

 
Maybe they should look into how similar their health concerns are to that of the Gulf war syndrome vet

There is Another Chemical 

There is another chemical that should be suspect for the harm to the Vietnam vet and the Korean Vet and look carefully at the Gulf War Vets with 'the syndrome' and they were exposed to it too; their health ailments should look the same; and they do
2-butoxyethanol or ethylene glycol monobutyl ether
Also at 6% strength in Simple Green ... used in all jails for cleaning?
Consider what this chemical can do - Jet fuel was said to be in the 'dioxin' mix to add stickiness ... and cause it to adhere to the foliage.  Jet fuel numbers 2-6 are labeled as pesticides.  I suspect 2-butoxyethanol (also 'labeled as a pesticide') was present ... and the real cause of harm. - 'Mother Margaret'
I have come to recognize the harm of this chemical because I have spent a lot of time looking into it.  Someone in my family was harmed by it when working on the 'bioremediation experiment' of the Exxon Valdez oil spill.  There is no doubt that 2-butoxyethanol in Inipol EAP 22 was the chemical of harm.
I also suspect it for causing most of the diabaetes .... but especially those with CFIDS, Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome.  To prove it's harm you have to prove the fatigue that doctors say they don't know what it is.
Check for autoimmune hemolytic anemia ... or for that in the family line ... way back to WWII days.  Much type 2 diabetes is a birth defect ... that shows up later ... like the brain tumors this chemical also can cause.

I wish there was some way I could help.  At least I do recognize when the pattern of this chemical's harm is there; and have thoughts on how to find it out.
It might also be good if doctors would realize that sometimes 'flu-like symptoms' is this chemical's poisoning:  not a virus

My daughter-in-law's family is burying her sister Saturday.  She was only 42.   I see several signs of exposure to this chemical & even though other factors may enter in, I suspect exposure to 2-butoxyethanol is the primary cause of death.  She served in the Army driving the big trucks in Germany. She completed her tour of duty just prior to the first gulf war starting.  She told me that when they 'decontaminated' the trucks ... they sprayed her, too.   Her mom told me she had 'elephant skin' on her arms and legs ...
I don't know what she did in 1989 ... but if she returned to Valdez, Alaska & served drinks at a local bar in those days, she could have been strongly exposed by way of second hand solvent exposure to this chemical. 

Know any Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup Workers?  *

Vietnam Vets : dioxin + jet fuel

Colmurph: JP-4 and JP-5 are just different grades of Diesel Fuel.

 
They were mixed with agent orange during the Vietnam War to give the DEFOLIANT some stickiness to adhere to the plants.
