“New research shows an unique type of titanium-filled dust, found at Camp Victory in Iraq, has been discovered in the lungs of several Iraq War veterans suffering from respiratory problems.
“Dr. Anthony Szema of Stony Brook School of Medicine told USA Today that the sick veterans originally came into his VA-run allergy clinic because they were suffering from shortness of breath:
"We biopsied several patients and found titanium in every single one of them. It matched dust that we have collected from Camp Victory...
"They've inhaled metal. It's not a little; it's a lot....”
“ It may have been created by burn pits used to eliminate everything from Styrofoam to vehicles to computers to unexploded ordnance in both Iraq and Afghanistan.”

Although I didn’t spend much time at Camp Victory, the same type of activity took place on Camp Taji, where I was assigned. It makes me wonder if I should get checked out.
