HEIRS Military Matters

On this blog, I/we discuss health and related issues of those that have served our country in the different branches of the military. I/We focus on health issues mostly because many environmental diseases occur at high rates in those that have served. Out of respect for all those who serve or have served, it is not meant to be confused with a blog that represents the thoughts and ideals of military personnel or any branch thereof. It is a place that anyone can talk about their experiences about illnesses related to their service or the service of a loved one and will be closely monitored to prevent any disrespectful remarks and is meant only to be used as an educational tool.
