Agent Orange Registry

Desert Riders,

I came across some info that you may want to pass on.

If you know a surviving spouse/child of a Nam vet who died from heart disease or cancer, and had enrolled in the Agent Orange Registry prior to 31 Aug 10, they may be entitled be entitled to back compensation. Have them take a look at http://www.vba.va.gov/bln/21/Benefits/Herbicide/AOno3.htm.

Also, if any vet served in Korea during '68 and '69 they may be covered under the Agent Orange statutes. And, if you served on other stateside or overseas bases that handled/stored various herbicides, you may be affected. Take a look at that website or contact the Veterans Service Officer.

Semper Fi,

Braden
