Gerald Phillips Posted February 18, 2024 Share Posted February 18, 2024 I was at CCK in 1967-68 in 314 FMS. As I understand we had 120 C 130’s and they rotate in and out of Vietnam , and Thailand. We had 30 in Tuy Hoa when I went TDY in March 1968. My service in Vietnam was not on my DD214, I ordered my records and it listed my service in Vietnam and the work I did there.

Graywolf88 Posted February 18, 2024 Share Posted February 18, 2024 I was recently informed by the county Veteran Service Officer of the county where I now live that the rules have been changed and a lot of new areas have been added to those where Agent Orange was presumed to have been used. There is also a list of the new areas added to the list of presumed Agent Orange exposure in a recent Agent Orange Newsletter from the VA. If you were rejected from Agent Orange presumed exposure in the past, you should get a copy of the new rules and try again. Many other bases have been added and if you could not prove you were exposed before, you might have been stationed at one of the new locations where they now admit Agent Orange was used. I got my own DD-214 modified with a DD-215 to include all the things they left off of my original 214. Had get the help of my representative in congress to do it, but it is changed now. The person blocking the applications for disability rating for Agent Orange exposure is no longer working at the local VA hospital. Things change and if your paperwork was rejected several years ago, it might go through now. Some things have been declassified, some new areas where Agent Orange was used have been identified, and you may be able to get your paperwork through now. Don't give up, try it again. List of Agent Orange Exposure areas now include Royal Thai Air Bases, Guam, American Samoa, Cambodia, Laos, an others. This information is from "Agent Orange Newsletter" 2024, which I recently recieved in the mail. It is printed and distributed by www.publichealth.va.gov JRH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
