My brother also has problems due to the Agent Orange. He served in the Army in Vietnam. He was a pilot. My father was a mechanic for the Bell helicopter experimental unit in Fort Worth. My father worked on them and my brother flew them.
One of the helicopters my father worked on is in a museum in Alabama. We went on a trip several years ago to see it.

Agent Orange was, and still is…

….a problem for many veterans. Myself included. It has also had a devastating effect on the Vietnamese population. There were other defoliants used in Vietnam. Agents purple, blue, and white come to mind. Nasty stuff. But we were young and invincible at the time. A bullet or a land mine might kill us, but nothing being sprayed from an airplane could harm us. Boy! Were we wrong!

What?

What am I missing. When I first replied to this thread there were more than three posts. So I come back to see what other veterans are here and I only see three posts. Guess this site is against Veterans. Wow, I have no other words....
