I CHOSE THIS ARTICLE because I'm very interested in the military and think it will be interesting how Obama is going to something about this because his term is almost over.

THE ARTICLE IS ABOUT how the burn pits are effecting veterans health.

WHAT IS A BURN PIT??

OTHER INTERESTING FACTS

DID YOU KNOW THAT

• A letter was written to Obama about this by a group of 700 vets.
• Before deployment, many vets. could run marathons
• More than 81,00 vets. and current service members are reporting sickness
• Agent Orange was another sickness from the Vietnam War that took many years to be resolved

QUESTIONS FOR ME

What do you think the consequences of Obama not responding to this immediately are?

How would you solve this issue?
