Just heard on AFKN (america forces network Korea)
That some soldiers in Iraq are developing leishmaniasis.

Now in that article I've linked to, it says symptoms can show up sometimes months after the infection. It also says that if left untreated it can be fatal. So what happens when US soldiers get back from Iraq, these symptoms develop, and they can't afford to get them treated because Bush is cutting veteran's benefits?

Will peruse those discussions, thanks.
