Why do people exposed to radiation regularly need to wear radiation badges?
The radiation badges tell you how much radiation you have been exposed to so you know when you have been exposed to enough (before it becomes dangerous) and you can stop work in that area until you are able to be exposed to radiation again. They sometimes wear lead aprons to protect themselves from radiation. I think this is right but you had better check again somewhere else because it might not be right.

Was agent orange used in Fort Polk LA in 1967?
DURING WARTIME, AGENT ORANGE was widly used as a defoliant in jungle or heavily forested areas. The whole area was sprayed, killing all of the trees leaves and foliage, making it eaiser for us to see the enemy. HOWEVER: You didn't have to be right there to be exposed to it. I know people who were in the Air Force during the Vietnam war. They were exposed to agent orange in the process of making it,packaging it, storing it, loading it,shipping it, dispersing it and many other possible ways. So to answer your question: yes it is possible to have been exposed to agent orange at various bases and installations.(NOT in particular Ft. Lewis, but in general).
