Post Vietnam War Exposure To Agent Orange

Just discovered this article.

If planes were contaminated with AO, why wouldn't armored vehicles be contaminated as well since the armored vehicles were subjected to aerial spraying?

I was a grease monkey on Vietnam War combat fighting vehicles shortly after the end of the war , and some of them DID have strong chemical odors, and it definitely wasn't diesel.

Damn.

Just being boots on the ground in any part of the RVN makes you eligible for the presumption list of A.O.

Your DD 214 should show your Vietnam  military service on it   

you mention after the WAR was you in Vietnam after 1975? after the fall of Saigon?
