Need some help and/or info. I was stationed at Camp Casey in 1965. I drove
diesel fuel truck to the DMZ to support the ROC. If all fuel wasn't off loaded
it was taken back to a spot at the camp and dumped on the ground. The huts were
heated with diesel fuel, I believe. During a flood in the village I was one of
the soldiers sent to help, working in flood water, which I believe was
contaminated. In 1983 my colon was removed. I didn't have VA medical at that
time but my doctor had been a military doctor and at the time said that I
"looked like one of his boys that were in Viet Nam". I have since developed
Paget's Disease, horrible psoriasis all over my body, have had both hips
replaced and extensive back surgery. Plus I can't hear. The VA said that I don't
have a case. Anyone else have any of these problems? Did VA help?

My Father, Roger Reynolds was stationed at Camp Casey/Hovey during this time
with the 7th Infantry, he has several health issues and we believe that it is
possible that he was exposed to Agent Orange or something else while there. If
anyone has similar experience or information please respond.
