Steve,

Sorry I forgot your question again:

> Where do you get this ratio of 2.2?

"with medical records verification ... Dr. Kang and his colleagues
concluded that the risk of birth defects in children of deployed male
veterans was about 2.2 times that of non-deployed veterans."
  -- Department of Veterans Affairs (2003) "Q's & A's -- New
Information Regarding Birth Defects" Gulf War Review, vol. 12(1), page
10, fifth line from the end in:

Sincerely,
James Salsman
