They do now. I’ve dated a couple gals whose fathers died of rare cancer(s) attributed to agent orange exposure…
VA has opened the flood gates in the last 10 years or so with the liberal application of service connection. I had a kid brag to me how he claimed a DS grabbed his blouse and now gets 10% for shoulder pain. Never mind the DUI warrant he has for crashing his car and subsequent reason for shoulder pain. This occurred 5+ years after service.
The VA is bending over backwards to stop the homeless vet headline, but that wasn’t always the case.
