As we know, Vietnam Era Veterans that served in Thailand (as well as those in the Philippines and Okinawa) have long been the "orphans" of the Agent Orange catastrophe. Though any Veteran that was stationed at Takhli, NKP, and many other Air Bases in Thailand can tell you that the vegetation around their perimeter quickly vanished after being sprayed, the VA and DOD have long denied that Agent Orange was used in Thailand.
In May 2010, however, the VA issued a Compensation and Pension Bulletin that addressed the process that the VA should follow in handling Agent Orange Exposure claims by military veterans on the following Royal Thai Air Force Bases, U-Tapao, Ubon, NKP (NAKHON PHANOM), Udom, Takhli, Korat or Don Muang. If you have any evidence that Agent Orange was actually used, please make it available to the VA through your DAV or other credible organization. The VA apparently does not
believe it or does not want to believe. Help your follow veterans and let the truth be known--now and forever! DO YOU HAVE
ANY EVIDENCE ABOUT AGENT ORANGE BEING USED? LET YOUR
REPRESENTATIVE KNOW ABOUT IT.
