Guest guest Posted August 16, 1999 Report Share Posted August 16, 1999 Below is a message I tried to send to Mr. Hart from Canada for an update on July 26th. I haven't heard a response. His e-mail is below my message sent to him if anyone else cares to try. Dear Mr. Hart: I just read about a retest that you called for on the Anthrax vaccine to be retested in an article in '98. I was curious to know if this has yet taken place. As an American soldier who has just recently received the vaccine, and fell ill, I must applaud you for your decision. Whether we're Canadians, or Americans, we are all nonetheless, human beings. I hope the retest was conducted before giving them to the Canadian soldiers, as I hold little hope for the vaccine. Can you tell me if the test has yet been conducted? hart@... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 12, 1999 Report Share Posted September 12, 1999 Thank you for your support . I also plan on attempting to get on AFB, and the Air Force Academy grounds to distribute fliers regarding the meeting. I spent most of the day yesterday on Ft. Carson base talking to soldiers and handing out information. Would have stayed all day and night, but somebody started following me with a not so happy look on his face, so thought I'd better make it a day, and hopefully keep myself out of jail!

Hey all, for those of us not busy with other Anthrax vaccine issues, lets see if we can find out from the horses mouth about what Anthrax vaccine they're experimenting with. Anyone with Israeli Army contacts? If you have such contacts try to find what they're testing if it's not classified. It would be very interesting to see what the results of their tests find. If anyone knows anything about terrorism it's the Israeli Army. Whether they know anything about human rights however is another matter. Hopefully their vaccine research teams will make the right choices. G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 27, 1999 Report Share Posted September 27, 1999 I don't think I am the only one who thinks this may just be a US Government ploy to make us THINK Israel is testing an Anthrax vaccine. Considering they are monitoring this list...How many times have we posted things like: " if this is such a major threat, why hasn't Israel given it to their troops and/or general population.

The only tough part is that it may be classified information that they will neither deny or admit to for security reasons. However what is interesting is that the AP report said that the vaccine testing was reported on Israeli radio which is hardly very secret. Does anyone know if there was a author to this report? What this source of this report anyways? A web page? A newspaper? G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we are so concerned about domestic terrorism, especially after the Oklahoma city bombing, the World Trade Center bombing, and especailly after cohen on the news holding up a 5 pound bag of sugar saying that if the bag of 5 pounds was actually 5 puonds of anthrax, then it could kill everyone in new york city, then why don't we vaccinate the members of our society that will take care of the injured victims of a domestic bioterrorism attack upon citizens of the united states?? These people would include police officers, firemen, EMTs, doctors, nurses, and medics. However, maybe if we did that, then the police officers uniona and the firemen's union would object to this and refuse the vaccine industry wide.... but then again they have someone defending them, and the average servicemember doesn't.

Guest guest Posted October 2, 1999 Report Share Posted October 2, 1999 Gretchen and I are happy you've become active on . I share many of your thoughts, and you have lots of info to share. And a reasonable thoughtful approach. I also enjoyed your website; need to review the links soon. Wanted to say that your health insurance can pay for a DHEA-S blood test which will tell you if you're deficient and the stuff isn't expensive. You may be able to get a doc like me to okay you to buy directly from manufacturers more cheaply to get the supplements. I keep playing with the many suypplements to see which are most useful--a hard thing to work out completely. NAC is also cheap and very good. alpha lipoic acid and dmae I think have helped. How's your thyroid, adrenals and sex hormone levels? They should be checked, but even if normal,. tiny doses of supplementation may help.

Sonar Technician (Submarine) 1st Class Brett Mills made a decision that could end his Navy career. When a hospital corpsman began injecting the crew of the fast-attack submarine Jefferson City with the anthrax inoculation, Mills would not be there. The 12-year veteran would refuse the shot. On the morning of Sept. 29, Mills said goodbye to his wife and two children and drove to Point Loma Submarine Base. He reported aboard that morning and when the crew lined up for inoculations, he was not there. A day earlier, he told the corpsman he wouldn't take the shot. He wasn't sure how they'd react once he refused. His world was about to change...... " >> , I have been subscribing to Navy Times for over twenty years and you really didn't have to waste your valuable time in sending this to me. Crewmembers aboard JEFFERSON CITY have indicated this sailor is strictly a non-conformist and newshound. This is a known fact. That has to tell you something. Each guy who has refused the vaccine to date, has been given a General Discharge (under honorable conditions) and that more than likely will continue. The people who are refusing the vaccine remain in the extreme minority and the Navy is not concerned with losing people for that reason. Again, we have not lost a single body from the anthrax vaccine. If you know of any, please let me know. And please don't quote Navy Times articles to me. I read it enough to get all the news I need. Thanks for your continued interest in the so-called problems with the anthrax vaccine. Maybe someday you will be actually proven wrong in all you viewpoints about this.

Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 I agree with the first part of your response but I have to also add. The XO was acting in a legal capacity and was a representative of the service when he violated all kinds of laws by making that phone call and giving out confidential personnel information. You have a good case against the car dealer and the XO and his employer. Get a lawyer, you could sue for all kinds of damages.

Guest guest Posted November 12, 1999 Report Share Posted November 12, 1999 We want to thank everybody for their support. can contact Lt. Sarmiento at: Lt. Sarmiento B Troop 1/10 Cavalry 4 ID Ft. Hood Texas 76544 Also the car dealer and lien holder were The Motor Pool Auto Sales 1900 E Veterans Memorial Blvd. Killeen Texas 76541 The only thing Jeff asked is to wait to send any comments or suggestions. His waiver for the OTH board and just accept a OTH went to the CG's office Wednesday. Jeff is afraid of them pulling that and court martialing him. Our last congressional earned Lt. Sarmiento a rear end chewing by the brass. Lt. Sarmiento is trying to get back at Jeff because of the trouble the congresssionals are causing. Jeff and I just want to get out of here. The day Jeff gets his orders, hopefully at the end of next week if all goes well, anyone and everyone can write and let them know how they feel. As far as the car goes, Jeff's dad called them and the office manager told Mr. Proffitt that we were behind in our car payment. We have an allotment set up to them. They told Mr. P that they never received the allotment. We are just tired of fighting. Not fighting to get the anthrax vaccine stopped, we are just tired of fighting everyone here at Ft. Hood. We want to go home. We sent our son home a few weeks ago and he misses us as we do him. Anyway, as soon as Jeff has orders please feel free to write and tell these people how you feel. We just don't want anything to mess Jeff's discharge up. We are not quitting, just being cautious. We have seen the adverse reactions to congressionals. And I thought military members were not to be punished for writing congress members. One thing Jeff's jag attorney said was we had a case for whistle blower. Confidential? Yhea right. Again, thank you all for your support. Jeff's NCO told him he would pick him up for work, he drives past our house. Our neighbor told us we could borrow their car. Plus the commissary is in our back yard, we usually walked to the commissary anyway. So we are handling this okay. Now the thing is our credit report. Since March Jeff's pay has been short for one reason or another. In August he got $2.17 for the whole month. Our credit card bills are in serious rears as it is. So if they add a repo on our credit report, it probably couldn't hurt, althought we have never had a repo before. Once we get home, Jeff will go back to the prison at $12.50 an hour. That is much more than an E-1 makes. We are either going to go through consumer credit counseling or to file chapter 7 bankruptcy. Jeff was told by his 1sgt a while back that if he filed for bankruptcy he would give Jeff a article 15. Such support. Jeff told him that when you only bring home $150.00 for the whole month, do you feed your family or pay your bills and the first sgt. told him that you pay your bills and use food stamps and the food bank to feed your family. This is the mentality we have been dealing with. The day Jeff inprocessed into his unit, his first sgt. asked him where he used to work. Jeff told him he was a corrections officer at a minumum security prison. Do you know what the first sgt. said? " Well we can't have any discrimination in the unit. " I kid you not. Jeff is not racist, he made no comment towards race. He knew right then who the racist one was, the first sgt. We are not bitter towards the military, just Jeff's unit. Like I said the fight has gone out of us. However, when we get home our congressman has a office in Panama City, we plan on visiting him and thanking him and we plan on fighting for the anthrax vaccine to be stopped. Again, thank you all.
