Thanks to the DAV magazine for the following article.

The Department of Veterans Affairs has extended the presumptive period to December 31, 2026, for qualifying chronic disabilities resulting from undiagnosed illnesses in Gulf War Veterans.

the VA presumes certain medically unexplained illnesses are related to Gulf War service. These include chronic fatigue syndrome: fibromyalgia; functional gastrointestinal disorders and undiagnosed illnesses with symptoms such as abnormal weight loss, cardiovascular disease, muscle and joint pain, headache, menstrual disorders, neurological and psychological problems, skin conditions, respiratory disorders and sleep disturbances.

A wide variety of symptoms can qualify a Gulf War Veteran for presumptive service connection, so veterans who are experiencing unexplained medical issues are encouraged to file a claim.

Please share this with your Post's and any Gulf War Veteran you know. If you served, you earned, no matter what your MOS was/is.
