AGENT ORANGE HELICOPTER SPRAY MISSIONS

AGENT ORANGE HELICOPTER SPRAY MISSIONS

I've been sent now unclassified information that most if not all of us have ever seen before, from a former chopper pilot. This provides data on just where, what, when and how much herbicides were sprayed in Vietnam by helicopter. This PDF file provides much information on the topic and the link is at the bottom of this email.

It is rather difficult to follow this file so the best thing to do is print pp 3-7 and get familiar with the coding; then scroll down to pages 9-138 to see where the missions were carried out and other identifying information that you will need from the coding pages.

The time frame for helicopter herbicide missions was 1962-1971. There is still no information on how much was disbursed via backpack spraying and truck spraying but the information on helicopter spray missions is very specific.
