SUBJ: Developing for Evidence of Herbicide Exposure inHaas-Related Claims from Veterans with Thailand Service during the Vietnam Era

Purpose

The enclosed document will serve as a substitute for an individual response from the Agent Orange Mailbox (VAVBAWAS/CO/211/AGENTORANGE). When regional office personnel receive claims based on herbicide exposure from veterans who served in Thailand during the Vietnam era, they should place the enclosed document in the claims folder rather than sending an inquiry to the Agent Orange Mailbox.
