Is a person born on a US military base in a foreign country a natural born US citizen?
A person born on an air base is an American citizen. Of course, this is only true if the parents are American citizens.
Are military base stores owned by the military?
Yes and no.
If a civilian were to go to a PX, or something to that affect, they could purchase something there so long as they were with someone who had a military ID.
as long as the person with id pays for the stuff
some bases still let people get away with letting ID holders buy things for civilians who are with them. However, if the store employees suspect this they can ask to see both individuals military ID. Its getting to the point in some bases that they ask to see your ID before you even enter the store to prevent this from happening

Was agent orange used in fort Gordon Georgia 1970-1971?
Probably. The military tends to use weed killers alongside the road, and Agent Orange (which is a mix of 2,4-D and 2,4,5-T, two very popular herbicides of the time) was in plentiful supply in the military. So, probably every military base open when Orange was being used got a few barrels of it.
DPO is actually the abbreviation for Diplomatic Post Office, not Discontinued Post Office as suggested. It is used by Embassies and consulates overseas. Also, the AE stands for Armed Forces Europe, not Army Europe.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From the structure of your question I assume you're looking for a former APO military location.
From what I've learned in a similar search, I believe the "DPO" is the abbreviation for "Discontinued Post Office". The "AE" definitely designates "Army Europe" and the "09498" part of your query would be the APO zip code for a former military installation.
For instance, "DPO AE 09742" would refer to the former APO 09742 zip code that was assigned to the Berlin Brigade in Berlin, Germany, but has since been discontinued due to the brigade's having been detached and reassigned.
If you are still in need of locating the exact location, I might suggest you locate someone who was assigned to the military installation that used the APO zip code.
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). <

Why did Japan attack on the US military base at Pearl Harbor in 1941?
September 1940. The U.S. placed an embargo on Japan by prohibiting exports of steel, scrap iron, and aviation fuel to Japan, due to Japan's takeover of northern French Indochina.
April 1941. The Japanese signed a neutrality treaty with the Soviet Union to help prevent an attack from that direction if they were to go to war with Britain or the U.S. while taking a bigger bite out of Southeast Asia.
June 1941 through the end of July 1941. Japan occupied southern Indochina. Two days later, the U.S., Britain, and the Netherlands froze Japanese assets. This prevented Japan from buying oil, which would, in time, cripple its army and make its navy and air force completely useless.
Toward the end of 1941. With the Soviets seemingly on the verge of defeat by the Axis powers, Japan seized the opportunity to try to take the oil resources of Southeast Asia. The U.S. wanted to stop Japanese expansion but the American people were not willing to go to war to stop it. The U.S. demanded that Japan withdraw from China and Indochina, but would have settled for a token withdrawal and a promise not to take more territory.
Prior to December 1941, Japan pursued two simultaneous courses: try to get the oil embargo lifted on terms that would still let them take the territory they wanted, and ... to prepare for war.
After becoming Japan's premier in mid-October, General Tojo Hideki See Books about Tojo secretly set November 29 as the last day on which Japan would accept a settlement without war.
The Japanese military was asked to devise a war plan. They proposed to sweep into Burma, Malaya, the East Indies, and the Philippines, in addition to establishing a defensive perimeter in the central and southwest Pacific. They expected the U.S. to declare war but not to be willing to fight long or hard enough to win. Their greatest concern was that the U.S. Pacific Fleet, based in Pearl Harbor could foil their plans. As insurance, the Japanese navy undertook to cripple the Pacific Fleet by a surprise air attack. See Books about Japanese Plans

Is a US military base abroad considered American soil?
No. The only places in other countries that are considered "American soil" are embassies and consulates. Military bases are generally on land leased by the host country.
Correct. Some people claim that it is American soil because children born there are American citizens. While this is true, this is not because the base is considered part of the US, rather, it's because the US's Immigration and Naturalization Act, long story short, says that children of American citizens are American citizens too. They will be issued a "certificate of birth abroad" by the US embassy/consulate near that particular base, which is the normal procedure in such a case.
