Because of the potentially enormous financial responsibility it could impose on the Veterans Administration, it took congressional action to investigate, understand, and fund research, treatment, and compensation for Vietnam Veterans. By the mid-to-late 1980's, the VA set up a national registry of Vietnam Vets who may have been exposed to Agent Orange. (Not all Vietnam veterans were exposed to the defoliant - depending on where, when, and how they served in country.)
