Attention 'Blue Water' Vietnam veterans
Recently, the United States Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims held that Vietnam veterans who served in the waters off Vietnam are entitled to disability benefits for diseases related to exposure to Agent Orange. This decision reverses the Department of Veterans Affairs policy that veterans had to step foot on Vietnamese soil in order to be entitled to the presumption of exposure to Agent Orange, and hence, presumptive disability benefits related to this exposure.
If you served offshore Vietnam between Jan. 9, 1962 and May 7, 1975, and you believe you are suffering from presumptive diseases caused from Agent Orange, ex., diabetes mellitus, prostate cancer, etc., please come see us so we may review your case for service connection compensation.
If you previously submitted a claim and were denied, we will help you to resubmit your claim as a result of this latest court ruling.
We welcome all Muskingum County veterans to come see us for a review of VA benefits eligibility. We are located at 145 Sunrise Center Road and our phone number is 455-7149.
