Anything that contacted Agent Orange.
Not my question!
Millions of veterans are dealing with the after effects of Agent Orange (called such because of the Orange band painted around the barrels). During the war, the Military color coded their ordnance: yellow meant explosive, red meant chemical, blue meant inert (training rounds), black was armor piercing. Those colors might be modified into other catagories.
See Website: Agent Orange (which also covers agent's Blue, Purple, Pink and Green).
Agent Orange is said to have very low biodegradability. This means that it takes more time for the substance to be destroyed through natural means. This can have adverse effects on the environment.
Yes, Agent Orange has been detected in the soil at Fort Bragg, North Carolina, where it was used during the Vietnam War for deforestation and military operations. Environmental assessments have revealed the presence of dioxins, which are toxic byproducts associated with Agent Orange. The U.S. military has conducted cleanup efforts, but concerns about soil contamination and its effects on health and the environment persist. Ongoing monitoring and remediation efforts are in place to address these issues.
