Episode 162 | Veteran Dan Frank talks about service in the Navy and Sarcoidosis
Episode 174
Monday, 27 April, 2026
It's clear that military veterans are more likely to suffer from Sarcoidosis than the general population. Dan Frank served as a Navy pilot. Years later, doctors told him he had sarcoidosis. While we don't know the cause -- the medical world and indeed the U.S Government, through the PACT Act, recognize that Military service may expose service members to conditions that cause sarcoidosis. In this episode of the FSR Sarc Fighter Podcast, Dan shares his story of life on an aircraft carrier and his battle with sarcoidosis.
