Agent Orange was sprayed in Pleiku, Vietnam, primarily between 1965 and 1969 during the Vietnam War. This herbicide was used as part of a broader strategy to defoliate forests and eliminate cover for enemy forces. The use of Agent Orange had long-lasting environmental and health impacts on both the Vietnamese population and U.S. veterans.
