I was with the 20th Engr Bde Headquaters at Bien Hoa for 7 months as a jeep driver.I drove all over III Corp.I spent 5 months with the 69th Engr Bn Co A at Can Tho,from May71 to Oct71.In 1994 I was diagnosed with Chondrosarcoma,cancer of the cartilage.In 1999 I was diagnosed with Coronary Artery Disease.In 2001 I was diagnosed with Peripheral Neuropathy.The Va,after 8 years finally gave me a 20% rating for the cancer in 2002.Last month they approve my hearing loss that I suffered while in VN,Don't know the % yet? When I was in country I remember seeing a helicopter fly over spraying chemical.I think I was in the Mekong Delta when I seen this.If anyone remember seeing this let me know.I also would like to know if any of you men are suffering with neuropathy,and what are you taking since the VA did away with Gabapentin?This stuff is KILLING ME.WELCOME HOME GENTLEMEN AND GOD BLESS
