I read the article and see nothing in it that would indicate a connection to depleted uranium, vaporized or otherwise. The State Senator and State Veterans Commissioner bring up the subject but they present no evidence to back up a connection. According to the article, both of the affected veterans served in Saudi Arabia, not in Iraq, nor in an area where depleted uranium munitions would have been used. I have heard some thought provoking speculation that some of the effects suffered by our service members might be the result of nerve agents or some other chemical agent that were in some of the Scud missiles that were shot down.
