We are looking for Civilians who served in Viet Nam with companies
like Lear Seitler who are suffering from the effects of agent orange. 
Is their any information available on this?

Agent Orange and its main ingredients, 2,4,5T and 2,4, D have been
directly linked to being the cause of CLL. Chronic Lymphocytic
Leukemia. 2,4 D was used in Western Australia by the Agricultural
Protection Board, supplied to county councils, [ in the bush] to spray
road verges for control of Cape Tulip, a noxious weed first brought in
from South Africa, as a pretty garden flower. It totally ruins
pasture. Not even pigs will eat it.

I placed myself on a government circulated "agent orange" list  12 or
13 years ago but have never been contacted.  What symptoms are being
experienced that cause you to believe it is from exposure to agent
orange?

According to a chemical engineer friend, agent Orange caused bad
problems for perhaps 100,000 vietnam vetrens because of a trace
impurity called dioxin. It causes injury at levels of less than one
part per billion and is harming civilians in many parts of the USA.
Incinerators produce dioxin in the flue gases from any chlorine
compounds, such as plastic, that are burned. Try nurse Joyce in a
search engine.   Neil

My brother  has esophageal cancer and I understand that type is rare
except in Africa, the UK and in people who were in VN and exposed to
agent organge. We've studied a good bit on the hazards of AO and my
brother has followed news on it for years because he knew he had been
heavily exposed.  Never did he dream he would later have cancer -
terminal - that might have been related.


To Neil, Thanks for the tip on Nurse Joyce.
