An Army veteran is walking across Texas to raise awareness about Gulf War illnesses. 'I just want a system that works,' he said while in Dallas.
"Back when we started this, the tide was turned completely against them. Nobody was interested in looking into this. It had been declared a psychological reaction to being deployed," Haley said."So we did the one study, and oh my gosh, it was real!"
Haley has studied more than 1,000 Gulf War veterans. His research shows exposure to a diluted sarin gas and a genetic predisposition to symptoms from that exposure caused the multi-symptom illness that includes PTSD, chronic fatigue, muscle pain, and cognitive and coordination issues. "It has just been so gratifying to meet them and see how much it means to them that somebody's looking into it," Haley said."I don't want the moon," Mumby said."I just want a system that works."
