Near the end of 1964 the involvement of the American troops in the war was rising. During the 1970’s it became evident that there were serious long lasting effects because of the chemicals. Not only soldiers but children also experienced physical ailments. Veterans of war were experiencing abnormalities after conceiving children. Several veterans had come forward stating that it was Agent Orange that had affected their health or birth defects of their children. There were a lot of soldiers unable to come back home and live normally after some of the harrowing things they had experiences and their own countrymen were criticising their involvement, when a lot of them had been conscripted and had no choice in whether they joined the army or

On December 1, 2015, 65 year-old Loretta Macpherson arrived at the emergency room of St. Charles Health System, located in Bend, Oregon. Ms. Macpherson arrived to the emergency room complaining of anxiety. When interviewed about her medication history, Ms. Macpherson was unable to identify the medications which she had been prescribed after her recent hospitalization at St. Charles for brain surgery. After examination, the emergency room physician ordered fosphenytoin, an anti-seizure medication, to be administered via intravenous infusion to Ms. Macpherson. In error she received rocuronium, a paralytic drug, causing her to stop breathing and suffer a cardiopulmonary arrest. Ms. Macpherson suffered irreversible brain damage and was placed

To summarize the case study, Jeanette is an 80-year-old woman who was trouble breathing. She called her doctor’s office and got in contact with the receptionist. The receptionist said she’d give the doctor a message on her concerns. Since the office was very busy, Jeanette wasn’t contacted back in a timely matter. She went to sleep and won’t up with her breathing problems being worse. She eventually became unresponsive and was diagnosed by the hospital that she had pneumonia and congestive heart failure. She later died. The doctor didn’t try to contact Jeanette back until the later that afternoon when she had already died.

The Agent Orange Act of 1991 is the only legislative pathway to add ailments to the presumptive list of service connected illnesses for Vietnam Veterans. It is set to expire on September 30th, 2015. If the Act is allowed to expire comprehensive research reviews will end. Without continued research reviews, some Vietnam Veterans will never be covered for the ailments caused by their exposure. If this legislation is not extended there will be no new ailments added to the service connected presumptive list for Vietnam Veterans (after the 2014 report is released this December).

Razack explores the murder of Pamela George; the way that her murderers’ sentences were lessened because of a variety of factors pertaining to Ms. George’s life; and the fact that the murderers were young, white, and middle-class men.

United States involvement in Vietnam has been surrounded by controversy since the 1960s. Many felt that controversy would end with the withdrawal of US troops in the 1970s. The troops came home and were not welcomed with the fanfare that surrounded veterans of previous wars. Was the controversy surrounding Vietnam a “dead” issue now that the troops were home? The answer is no. The controversy continues to this very day. The issue of whether or not the US should have gotten involved with Vietnam is still undecided. The even larger issue, on the other hand, is that of exposure to Agent Orange.

Absolution is a 61.5 inch by 85.5 inch acrylic painting by Maud Gatewood. The American painter attended the University of North Carolina Greensboro to study painting in the 1950s. The absolution painting dates back from 1989 when Gatewood had returned to the US from Austria. The painting is done on a canvas using acrylic paint. Unlike most painters who depend on engraving, lithography and other painting techniques, she would create unusual but rigid pictures which most people claimed were not paintings. Absolution is made by painting a surface that would later be overlaid on a canvas to display the painting. The museum visit was accomplished the eighteenth day of February 2017. Maud Gatewood was determined

Almost thirty years after the last troops were pulled out of what was then South Vietnam, its effects are still felt in today’s society. It is hard not to find someone who’s life has not been affected because of this war. One of the most controversial decisions made in the war was to use chemicals to fight the enemy. The most boradly used chemiucal was called Agent Orange. Some people agreed with the use of Agent Orange. They saw it as a very viable weapon that needed to be used in order to keep the Communist from taking control of South Vietnam and subverting their democratic government. Many others disapproved of its use. They knew, correctly, that it would severely devastate the landscape of Vietnam and would forever ruin the

Also during the Viet Nam war, America decided to sprayed agent orange- a Dioxin-laden defoliant, onto the landscape of Southeast Viet Nam to deprive the enemy of cover. Who in their right mind would ever think it's a good idea to find the enemy by wiping out beautiful forest and hurting civilians? For people who don’t know what Agent Orange can do to people, it contains dioxin, one of the most dangerous chemicals known to man, it causes cancer and birth defects. Even though it has been 50 years, that toxic chemical is still hurting the Vietnamese people; children born to parents exposed during the war and in areas of heavy spraying hot spots have sever physical deformities, mental and physical disabilities, diseases and shortened life spans. The Vietnamese people exposed to the chemical suffer from cancer, liver damage, pulmonary and heart diseases... Viet Nam war is just a hurtful memory, there is no good bringing it up to debate now, but even though the war didn’t affect me physically, it has a big impact on me

During the peak of U.S involvement in the Vietnam War, between 1967 and 1969 the U.S employed a strategy that proved to be a disaster on many different levels. With over 500,000 of their troops serving in Vietnam at the time, the widespread use of herbicides, particularly Agent Orange began being sprayed over the Vietnamese jungle by planes. The aim of this was to eliminate the ‘invisibility' of the Viet Cong and offer a safe path for the American troops to follow. This was a good idea in theory, but what the American strategists didn't think of was the toxicity of the herbicides, and the fact that not only would the Viet Cong be exposed to it, but their troops and innocent South Vietnamese would be also. A widely speculated and argued repercussion of this is that many Vietnam veterans, and Vietnamese villagers began to give birth to babies with birth defects. However, a confirmed result

The chemical weaponry that were used on the Vietnam vegetation had an adverse effect on the people in a way that even after three generations, the effects are still evident on the children. Many of them are born with malformations and severe defects in the nervous structure and immune system. The chemical also affected the American soldiers and veterans as many of them have health issues related to these weapons. Although the American government thought that they were only punishing the North Vietnamese, American veterans ended up victims of chronic and unhealthy conditions.

We must do everything in our power to make the world recognize that our veterans are still paying a high price for fighting the war in Vietnam. Agent Orange is slowly taking the lives of these brave veterans. The government has recognized some diseases but the rules to compensation can be complex. It was in the 1960's that we were in the process of trying to destroy vegetation and brush in Vietnam, in doing so we proceeded to contaminate one of the largest parts of the environment, Humankind. War Veterans were exposed to Agent Orange and now live their lives with a disease not necessarily curable. The question remains did these Veterans know about the hazardous effects, and how are they being compensated now? Agent Orange was the code
