Default Re: Presumptive Service Connection Exposure to Agent Orange

I was in Vietnam for a year, 11 months and 29 days actually. While I don't think I was ever exposed directly to Agent Orange. C-130s did fly over spraying stuff but we were told it was insecticide.

Thank goodness I have never shown any of the symptoms of exposure.

However if I did would just being in the country be enough to get disability?

Thanks!

I hope this will answer your questions with regards to being in country: https://www.publichealth.va.gov/expo...ns/vietnam.asp


You would need to show that you have any of the presumptive conditions listed on the VA website in order to claim a disability: https://www.publichealth.va.gov/expo...ions/index.asp
