Gulf War Syndrome-Killing Our Own (2007) After the Vietnam War, hundreds of thousands of U.S. veterans suffered toxic reactions, neurological damage, and rare cancers due to exposure to 2,4,5,-D and 2,4,5-T dioxin that was used in the form of the defoliant Agent Orange.
Unfortunately, the U.S. military denied the problem and failed to heed any of the lessons of this chemical butchery.
Instead, it expanded its harmful legacy to the current generation of soldiers and civilians exposed to new, more deadly chemical toxins in the Persian Gulf.
