My Dad was in Vietnam and they sprayed loads of it right around where he was. He said they flew over and sprayed this stuff, didn't tell anybody what it was. Within the next few days, as he describes it, the whole jungle turned black and died around them. He's got diabetes from it and it may well be a factor in my asthma and allergies. Bad stuff.
