Some Iraq War Vets Suffer Breathing Problems

Date:5/21/2008

All study participants were from the 101st Airborne Battalion based at Fort Campbell, Ky. But these troops weren't the only ones exposed to the Mosul fire. Other battalions also assisted in controlling the fire, King said, and may have been affected as well.

The U.S. Army has more on the health effects of the Mosul fire.
