A Dutch Specialist in Wellington once asked a Cancer [Prostrate] Patient I was escorting -if he had ever swam in the Suez Canal! I see Jim W has been swimming or whatever in the Gulf -near the Canal. Cancer is the real doom but any problems in the Water Region [not the Suez-YOURS!!] should be followed up and Specialists Reports forwarded with an Application for War Disability Pension.Forget Cancer-lots of other damage can be done in the "Nether" Region. We fail miserably here-"Out of Sight-Out of Mind"- I couldn't get that Specialist to put his theories in writing-Typical. Go for everything lads THEY did the damage.I reiterate IT's almost impossible for Ex-Pats-But I find HOME Applications do succeed. [Bit like the Medals] -Jack.
