REPORT FROM THEATRE 1 - AFGHANISTAN
WAR FOR ENDURING FREEDOM 12/21/01
REPORTS:
DoD/VA Study Finds Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS, "Lou Gehrig's Disease") in Gulf War Vets

In Mazar-e-Sharif, a public dogfight draws much interest.
In Mazar-e-Sharif, at a teahouse, it looks like kabob.
Within the refugee camps, it looks like there may be malnutrition --in part because of poor food distribution.
The food the child is holding, and the sad, unpleasant, or angry attitude of the very young,
could be suggestive of kwashiorkor, rather than marasmus. In other words, there might be protein-calorie malnutrition
but the sample is small, there has been no nutritional exam,
and there is simply too much burqua in the way to tell.
North in Sar-e-Pol, once again a guard swings a stick into the helpless at the food line.
In Herat, trucks appear covered with Iranian Red Crescent Society tarps.
Near Takhtapul, Afghan men stop and stock up on food supplies air-dropped by the U.S.
At the Spin Wam border with Pakistan, the border is monitored.
In India
Near the Nowshara Sector,
an Indian soldier holds a rocket launcher.
In Boston, the First Amendment shines as the logically-challenged appear.
STILL LOOKING for TWO.
Off Oahu, new species of deep-sea squid is reported. 17 feet long, too many long tentacles,
and comfortably cruising at a depth of 10,000 feet, looking like nothing else known.
