Yeah, this is one old grunt who's following the ORANGE and PURPLE stories, since I was posted to Gagetown in the mid '60s.

I have a respiratory condition which is indicative of the type accruing to the useage of ORANGE.

So now I have to go through the concurrent hassles of making application for consideration and getting my Pers Docs out of Archives. At least it's not cancer!

This will wind up being fudged around until everyone concerned is dead, so will it be worth the trouble at all?

Just last night, the Liberal government denied that any civilians would have been exposed to either agent. Excuuuuse me...every summer, thousands of supplemental workers are employed by almost every military base in Canada, specifically large training centres such as Gagetown, for putting up tentage, brush clearing, asset repairs, etc.
