@retairforceman I wish there were words I could say that could take away some of the pain you are feeling. You are not alone in your feelings. I'm not sure if it will help you but I did see an agent orange registry health exam that you can get based on your service recollections (does not depend on what they show as your military duty station records). http://www.publichealth.va.gov/exposures/agentorange/benefits/registry-exam.asp - the exam may give you more support for claims which have to be submitted separately from the exam - https://www.ebenefits.va.gov/ebenefits/homepage. Do you have a local VA advocate in the County where you live? The counties in Minnesota have VA reps that help vets wade through all the VA forms and submissions. That would be a good source if available in your area.

There is also a veterans group for agent orange if you haven't already seen it -
