A Few Shocking
Truths about
Agent Orange Effects
Herbicidal Warfare
Unfortunately many
of the Vietnam Veterans were exposed to Agent Orange while in
Vietnam. It contained dioxin, an extremely toxic chemical. Are you
or do you know a Veteran affected by Agent Orange?
1. Agent Orange
Agent Orange is the code name for one of the herbicides and defoliants used by the U.S. military as part of it's herbicidal warfare from 1961-1971. A defoliant is any chemical sprayed or dusted on plants to cause it's leaves to fall off. It was used to destroy Vietnam's forest cover and food supply. Up to 200,000 Vietnam veterans could be eligible for disability compensation for disease now associated with Agent Orange.

2. Studies Show
According to Wikipedia.com studies have shown that veterans who served in the South during the Vietnam War have increased rates of cancer, nerve, digestion, skin and respiratory disorders, and many more illnesses and diseases, as a result of exposure to Agent Orange/dioxin. They are eligible for compensation and treatment.
Note:
The video below gave
me some understanding of what soldiers went through during war and
after war. Taking Fire is a series that has been shown on the
Discovery Channel. It was coded with the name COP Michigan in
Afghanistan,Korenagal, sometimes known as “The Valley of Death”
Since I am the wife of a Veteran it helped to give me more insight
about some of the Veteran's feelings and how war affects them and the
entire family as well. War is not pleasant, but it has been apart of
life for many. You may have relatives or friends that have been
affected by the war.
