  21. Gulf War Studies, PG Registry, CPG,WRIISC, and more - Invisible Apparent at the beginning of 2005, veterans cannot be found to participate in studies. Turns out veterans cannot be found to participate, or get PGR exams even on request, or anything Gulf War related walking in the door of a VAMC based on the lobby.

  22. Gulf War Studies, PG Registry, CPG,WRIISC, and more - Invisible Hide and Seek

  23. Gulf War Studies, PG Registry, CPG,WRIISC, and more - Invisible After 5 years of suggesting it, the AFIP Gulf War Tissue database is still a untapped gold mine of samples for researchers. All that is needed is to pay for the AFIP to provide a catalog. Again, all are aware and none step up.

  24. Gulf War Studies, PG Registry, CPG,WRIISC, and more - Invisible The same can be said on the net as programs are hinted at, but getting something done they turns Invisible through loopholes.RAC, IOM, DHSD, WRIISC, and others are aware – but wont address publicly. The programs fail like WRIISC from this, at 58 participants nation wide in 3 years. Over things as simple as transportation to the East Coast.How do we find the vets, and bring them in.
