description Altogether 372 deployed US troops died in 1990-1: 40% from combat, 52% from accidents (primarily related to training and motor vehicles), and 8% from illness. 6 Illnesses in Gulf War veterans have been a source of intense controversy on both sides of the Atlantic. Since 1991 many veterans and their families have voiced concerns about possible health consequences of their service, and many have complained of being unwell, reporting a wide array of medical complaints. Neither the work of Fukuda et al nor Ismail et al could replicate these findings. [...]though Gulf War veterans' illnesses are real and sometimes disabling, they do not seem to constitute a unique illness.
