How old are you Grunt? If you served in the 1990s you would have been vaccinated with both anthrax and smallpox for sandbox 1 I certainly was and I can tell you not only myself but dozens of other men in my unit were laid out after the first anthrax shot. 104F+ fevers, whole side of our body numb and lose of movement entirely for a few days in the limb we got the shot in. This was shot one of THREE the second and the third were not so bad but still was high on the suck O meter. Smallpox made my whole arm numb and took weeks to get the full pain out of it. We took the jabs like men not a bunch of whiney Mary’s

“How old are you Grunt? “

I’m a young septuagenarian!
RVN 68, 69, 70.

See#73 about the gamma globuin(?) shot.
Not one I would have forgotten.
