VVA’s Veterans Agent Orange Initiative is a humanitarian, veteran-to-veteran effort to document Agent Orange exposure (particularly from hand and truck spraying of bases) and to define likely hot spots of dangerously high dioxin levels on former U.S. and ARVN bases in Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.
WHAT KIND OF INFO IS NEEDED? Personal anecdotes; base maps (printed or hand drawn); photos showing Agent Orange drums, tanks, spraying, and incidents.
HOW CAN YOU HELP? Send in the information below to the VVA. Please provide as much detail as possible. Include information you have about off-loading, transport, and storage routes of Agent Orange at your base; exact location of AO storage on your base; how often and where spraying around base occurred; location of spills, leaking tanks and drums; disposal sites; crash sites of spray planes or trucks; and any other relevant information. ALL information will be kept strictly confidential. If you know other Vietnam veterans who may have information, please send them this information.
