I honestly never thought we would see this much movement when I first started typing this out in my kitchen and now it feels like people are finally starting to pay attention to what actually happened on Guam all those years ago. It is just incredible to see this kind of momentum building because for so long it felt like nobody cared about the veterans or their families who have been suffering in silence.

The military fail to provide medicare for active veterans returning from Vietnam for agent Orange. They placed we were exposed to agent Orange in our medical records or discuss the health issues . VA has denied my claims three times because my medical records doesn't stated anything about agent Orange . The government exposed 90 million miltary members to this deathly chemical . Our congress should be ashamed of themselves when they pass a Bill to compensated the Vietnamese but not the American that service in Vietnam and Thailand from 1965 to 1975. We are informed your claims is denied because it not your outdated presumptive lists . While veterans are dieing everyday. They just don't care . Willie Smith

I have conditions related to AO, but the VA will not honor the conditions related to the AO. I served on Guam from 1974-1976 and lived off base in the town of Yigo until Typhoon Pamela hit. Type 2 diabetes, Scleroderma, Hypertension, and a few more. All we need is someone to get it right.
