God love you, man! This AO stuff is killing the ones of us that the Vietnamese couldn't!! I have no recognized reasons that would cause the problems I have, but by thunder the VA pushes away my pleas and won't connect them to AO exposure! I am at 90% with PTSD, hearing loss, muscle, nerve, bone and connective tissue damage to my legs. The VA PAYS for my allergic reactions, my lung disorders that are associated with asthma and COPD, but, I NEVER smoked, and that is the first question they always ask! Then they say "why do you have COPD?" Makes me turn ORANGE!
