The USA entered WWI when Germany
was attacking our ships ... so
USA entered the war, maintained
a separate army ... and 19
months later the War was over.
Pres Woodrow Wilson was hoping
to start a League of Nations,
but the US Congress did not
approve it.
There is a possibility that we
need to know what happened to
those who served in WWI and what
has happened to their families.
What birth defects? What health
ailments? Besides mustard gas
that we hear so much about,
there were also many rounds of
ammunition going off ... what is
in bombs?
The flu virus of 1918 may be a
combination of a virus and a
chemical exposure. Making
weapons ... getting bomb fumes
in the eyes ... can have add on
concerns that are being
replicated in every war. Are
those who die of this flu virus
today also turning blue rapidly
from sudden lack of oxygen? I
think not. I think two things
were mixed together. We are not
likely to see a pandemic flu
epidemic, because I suspect it
was more than a virus that was
part of the equation.
We need to look more at the
similarities instead of the
differences in every war
period. We may find a common
chemical exposure for all

Is the health damage to vets during
war eras, and the effects on their children
similar from one period to another?
What Happened to WWI Vets and their
Children?
