Jungle Essay, Research Paper

Many U.S. soldiers came in contact with dioxin

when it was used in the Vietnam War as a

defoliant under the name of Agent Orange. Now

many of these soldiers are showing signs of or

have cancer. Many of these soldiers have passed

on this dioxin poisoning to their children. For

years, Vietnam Veterans have claimed that their

exposure to Agent Orange has resulted in illness

and death. The United States government and the

Veterans Administration has consistently taken the

position that adequate information does not exist

to demonstrate a relationship with Vietnam

service, Agent Orange exposure and any illness or

disease.
