What are the mental effects of agent orange?

The U.S. Military used chemical agents such as napalm and agent orange to kill vegetation and harm the enemy during the Vietnam War. Agent Orange was a chemical defoliant used to strip leaves from trees in the jungle and to destroy rice crops to deny the enemy food sources. The defoliants were sprayed to allow the U.S. to see into the jungle and see the Viet Cong that were hidden from air-view due to the trees covering the grounds. The defoliants caused health defects in the Vietnamese civilains. Some of the health detects included cancer, sterility in soldiers, unhelathy and deformed babies and still born babies.


You were in Vietnam 1970 Jan to 1971 feb delta region .How can you get Agent Orange spray maps info?

The VA had, and probably still does have, an Agent Orange program. After contacting them and setting up an appointment, they'll hand you a black and white photo copy of SOUTH Vietnam and ask YOU to show them where YOU were at and what unit YOU were with...as well as the dates YOU were there. Things will progress from that point.

What was the reaction of the American public to agent orange?

Agent Orange and the dangers of Dioxin associated with it didn't come to light in the U.S. until the late 70's into the early 80's. Because of the general unpleasant memories associated with the Vietnam war and all the turmoil, there was little sympathy or understanding of the implications of Agent Orange Exposure. 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.)
