I am trying to get and give help to all disabled vets, who did their jobs and are now having the side effects of chemical exposure. My son ssg mike age 47( retired disabled vet)worked on pershing missles and aviaton repairman. He used numerous hazardous materials including (mek) doing his job. These chemical where banned in the usa in the 70's/80's. But is still being used today. Ssg mike now is being treated by 9 doctors, all the signs point to chemical/radiation exposure. We found out that va does not reconize chemical exposure unless it was agent orange in viet nam. There is a bill in the senate hr 514 title 38 to expand the agent orange coverage to cover vets like ssg mike. It was sent to sub-committe in 2001 and it is still there. Please contact your congressman and get them to back this bill, so these men/women can get the help they need. Thank you for your help and service
