What chemicals in Vietnam sprayed don trees bother American soldiers?
During the Vietnam War, U.S. forces sprayed a variety of herbicidal and defoliant chemicals in a program known as Herbicidal Warfare. The chemicals were identified by code names Agent Orange, Agent Purple, Agent Pink, Agent Green, Agent Blue and Agent White. Many of these were contaminated with toxic and carcenogenic dioxin compounds.

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).
