Jim Roxby, 35, Vietnam veteran in 1966-67 cleared land for three base camps spraying Agent Orange. Once he received an accidental dose from high-powered hoses spraying from trucks. He was sick for three weeks--nauseous, bleeding from eyes and ears. Since his return from Vietnam, he has major health problems including only 20% movement in arms.
