I was infected with Agent Orange among other things, If you know of someone who passed away from it I can and will only tell you this.He probly was in sever pain but never complained he probly remembered coming home to see people who went to school to avoid the draft. He probly talked to the very ones who demostrated against us, (you can tell cause they can't look you in the eye)but this of all I do Know he Died a Hero in my eyes and every one he served with will tell you the same. It doesnt take a chest full of medals to be a hero. When you answer your country's call and go to fight you are a hero. I was medevaced on my deros day recieved 13 cents a day for being exposed to Agent Orange but lets keep that our secret. When you think of your Granfather just think of that Hero who died so others might live.
