Veterans become political pawns
Veterans become political pawns
It was 4:00 p.m. on March 10, 1991, when the first planned explosion of Saddam Hussein's chemical weapons went off at the U.S. weapons depot in Khamisiyah, Iraq, and the first gray-white smoke cloud that would come to be called The Plume wafted skyward and drifted over the troops.
