Gulf War veteran from Hampshire wants accountability for illnesses suffered

Alun Newman

Available for over a year

Mark McGreavy is one of the many servicemen reporting long-term health problems. The Ministry of Defence has previously said that it had to balance the risks of experimental vaccines with the risk troops would face if exposed to deadly biological or chemical warfare agents. They also say help is available through the War Pensions Scheme where it's recognised that ill health is the result of service in the Gulf.
