Government waits for proof – sometimes for decades – before caring for sick veterans
In Vietnam, Jim Ogden flew through clouds of Agent Orange. In Desert Storm, he hovered past burning oil fields. During Operation Iraqi Freedom, he worked near a thick black plume of burning plastic, metals, chemicals and medical waste.Along the way he took injection after injection and swallowed pill after pill. He breathed in herbicides and pesticides. And he never questioned whether all of those drugs, toxins and poisons might someday do him harm.Not until he lost his eyesight.Now the former Marine and master helicopter mechanic can’t help but wonder what, if anything, was to blame.
