    Agent Orange and Dioxin Hot Spots in Vietnam. During the American War, US military forces released over 72 million litres of herbicide into the environment of southern Viet Nam in a code-named mission called Operation Ranch Hand that extended from 1962 to 1971.

    Three million acres of South Vietnam were sprayed with 50,000 tons of Agent Orange and other. herbicides, containing over 500 pounds of dioxin. Because herbicides were used in Vietnam to. destroy crops and defoliate jungle cover, the military used 27 times more herbicide per unit area.

    Здравствуйте читатели и христиан в России,
    независимо от того, где мы живем, истинный Новости рассказывает нам о том, что коррупция и войны в воздухе. Иногда я использую мой американский сленг, когда я пост в мой скромный Блог: TOM'S JOURNAL. Но теперь, большинство людей знают, что такое "SHTF -- дерьмо попадает в вентилятор". Это может быть ядерной войны, супер землетрясение, гражданская война, Финансовый таять вниз, или что никогда. Сколько из вас абсолютно не готовы ? Недостаточно американцы в любом месте вблизи, и мы тратим деньги, как "масло проходит через наши пальчики!"
    Я знаю, что моя семейная история, и он включает в себя около 25, 000 природных немцев в Россию в течение Czarina Екатерина Великая, Пшеницу фермеров. Но после окончания войны с Германией, умные немцы приезжают в Америку и найти хорошую жизнь здесь, до сих пор повышение пшеницы, свиней, крупного рогатого скота, а также многих детей. Они были решительными очень религиозные христиане, и я христианин. И мы не настолько разные, как вы, ребята,.... мы хотим жизни, свободы, счастья и мира!!! Но кто знает, что будет дальше с Северной Кореей, угрожающего миру со своим ядерным оружием.....
    Есть большой, сейф, день.

    Hi  Friends,
        I had 2-- appointments today at the Oscar G Johnson VA Medical Center, in the U.P.  of Michigan:   Iron Mtn., MI.   I love to make new friends, meet new people, and bump into some old Veteran buddies/ and dear friends, too, at the VAMC.   As for   me,  I want CLOSURE and an end/ finality to all these years of pain and indignity, too !!   So do most Combat Veteran friends I know and talk to.   Honestly,  we are dang tired of CONSTANTLY getting jerked around by so many lying, abusive 'doctors,' and staff,  but especially the U.S. Gov't and the VA !    That is why so many Vets voted for Donald Trump !!   He is a good man, but who knows if he can take on all the massive corruption of the Veteran's Administration, and we are bone tired of excuses.   I am also taking a chance in legally doing some 'powerful things,' lately/ recently,  but can those corrupt people hurt me any more than I am now ??   The VA has taken a 'wide brush stroke' in trying now to taking away all of our Veterans' Home Health Care, benefits, ALL opiates [Pain Medications], and "[Un]  Employability."    It doesn't even matter what horrible injuries, fractures, pain from many combat sources that the Veterans many have !   There is NO compassion anymore --- and that will certainly take away our ability to be mobile -- to get around and be active !!   Shame.     Won't those unkind, brutal, VA 'docs' be stunned when they are,  "Left Behind,"  after the Rapture,  but they don't even have the Holy Spirit nor the Understanding of the Scriptures,  even as the KJV Bible is written on a 5th grade reading level !   And they are sooooooo pompous and abusive/ condescending !



             And now in this year especially,  with all the unearthed, total CORRUPTION in our Gov't,  the civilians are only beginning to see just how dirty all the greedy politicians really are.   Sorry to say,  many churches are corrupt too, and many religions are FAKE, FALSE, GREEDY AND ALSO CORRUPT !!   Even the KJV Bible shows the light on these subjects, and everything will be exposed in the end.... all the nasty, hidden, sins and crimes !   And then the Lord Jesus Christ will ALSO Judge all human beings, too.   However,  I am not so worried about all the others --- but my own sins [praise the Lord] are already forgiven, and I am working hard on the rest.   That pardon is for real,  just read all about it, soon.   The books of Acts and Romans give a great account.  

    But right now, all true Christians are obliged to use the National and State Laws to correct things where we live.   That doesn't mean that those who suffer injustice should just sit still and endure lawlessness and crime !   "The pen is mightier than the sword !"   I will seek damages thru the Law when I can, and post those many results here in my humble Blog posts.    But in the end,  God will repay !  

    I am sorry, also,  that when ever I try to 'cut and paste' reliable Info/ Intel.,  much of it gets 'hung up' and not printed --- and I believe that the wicked political powers that be are definitely trying to ham string many true Patriots like me, who seek to expose the 'Congress Critters' and corrupt Senators, etc.   I guess that many of mankind will never see real Justice on Earth --- but later in heaven.   That's OK, too.     I would much rather be live and forgiven in heaven even as a "shoe shine boy,"  than some great 'statesman,' or some high born, noble prince on earth !   Plus all those in false religion, some of which I 'stepped into' after I returned from Vietnam:  68-70.   In fact, it takes a lot of courage to quit attending and donating to False Religions....  because people are so afraid of what their friends and family might think  ---  Ha!   Been there -- done that,  too....

           Well,  I certainly don't know what tomorrow will bring to me, and that is precisely why I must trust in the Lord.   
            "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart;  and lean not unto my own understanding."   --- Proverbs 3: 5.

    If  you want more Info/ Intel.,  please email me.   I am now taking a certain 'action' to see what some things are about, and will probably know a lot more, next Tuesday --- God willing and the creek don't rise.   In the mean time I wish every Veteran and their loved ones, a very soulful, bright, Veterans' Day, tomorrow !  !

    Warm Regards,
    Tommy Schuckman


          


           On my 2nd tour of duty in RVN,  I served with the 240th AHC [Assault Helicopter Company---  door gunner] at Camp BearCat:  1969- 1970.   My First tour was with USARV, at  CuChi, PhuLoi, and Bien Hoa air base, etc.   I firmly believe that my Lord and God,  Yahweh,  saved and protected me.

    U.S. troops, Vietnamese nationals exposed to dangerous chemicals

    The map below can be used to see defoliant spraying missions by U.S. and South Vietnamese forces over Vietnam, as well as Laos and Cambodia. The missions began in summer 1961 and ended more than a decade later, in spring 1971.
    Clicking and dragging on the timeline at the bottom of the map lets you view the spraying missions as they took place over months and years. You also can zoom in on a particular town or area by entering its name in the search box. Once you have found the spraying missions you are looking for, you can click on the lines on the map to get more details about the missions, such as the number of legs, or runs, the number of gallons and the type of defoliant.
    Read the Tribune series on Agent Orange and its toxic legacy.
    Please note: Lines rendered on the map represent spraying runs, many of which are part of multi-run spraying missions. The quantity of herbicide listed in the map descriptions are per mission. Line width on the map is not an indicator of spray distribution. Herbicide quantity is not available for some missions.

    This interactive map is based on the Herbicide Exposure Assessment-Vietnam database developed by Jeanne Stellman, professor emeritus at Columbia University's school of public health, and Columbia epidemiology professor Steven Stellman. They cleaned data from a 1974 National Academy of Sciences database and supplemented the records with documents from the National Archives. The database is considered the most comprehensive available on spraying missions. The effort was funded by a contract from the National Academy of Sciences to build an exposure model that could be used to assess the defoliants' health impact on U.S. veterans who served in Vietnam. The model has been evaluated twice by the Institute of Medicine, which recommended that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs use it to evaluate the chemicals' health impact. The VA has been testing the exposure model since 2003.

    Sadly, the biggest failures are Tammy Duckwort(less), Dick Durbin, "Songbird" Mccain! These are all Veterans & have done absolutely nothing to alleviate the problems of the VA. Tammy especially is disgusting; she doesn't even use the VA because she knows it is so bad.
