“Former Soldier”

A former South Vietnamese soldier—a U.S. ally—describes the maladies that afflicted him in the years after his exposure to the herbicide and expresses his abhorrence for chemical weapons.”

“This guy says that he would rather fight conventionally with guns, with knives,” Trinh says. “He felt it was so atrocious to use chemical weapons. He was hurt by his allies, right? ‘You fight your enemy, right? So why am I hurt?’ It makes no sense to him. ‘Now the war is over, I still don’t have my life. I’m sick. I’m worried about my kids, and even my grand kids. Are they going to be sick as well?’”
