Guest guest Posted August 19, 1999 Report Share Posted August 19, 1999 I spoke with my son last night who is stationed at Ft. Hood. His unit has begun the anthrax shots. He said a lot of the personel are going to refuse it. He also stated that some 300 members of the 82nd Airborne have refused to take the shots. Can anyone confirm this? If this is true then it must hit the media in a big way. My son is going to refuse the shots, he said that he doesn't care that they can court-martial him, his health is more important. To all those that are thinking of refusing to take the shots, good luck. Our prayers go with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 20, 1999 Report Share Posted August 20, 1999 I'm not sure about this or not, but I would recommend that if someone wants to get theis information, they ashould call the PAO(Public Affairs Office) at Ft. Bragg, North Carolina. Ft. Bragg is right outside of Fayeteville, North Carolina. THIS IS IMPORTANT. This incident is important since the 82nd Airborne Division is one of the divisions in the army's Rapid Deployment Force. The 82nd Airborne has seen action in Grenada, Panama, and Desert Storm. The Division gets a great deal of money to train and prepare for readiness. This division is nicknamed " America's Guard of Honor " . And, if a part of America's Rapid Deployment Force in the army refuses this shot, then this action could have much bigger effects by sending a huge shock to the upper echelons of the Pentagon.
