Chemical Warfare

Agent orange was introduced into the Vietnam War in attempts to find Vietnamese guerillas, in these attempts the US Air Force sprayed gallons of the chemical onto the Vietnamese jungle which concealed the Vietnamese soldiers. It was also used to ruin crops. Agent Orange is made up of two chlorophenoxy herbicides: 2, 4, 5- trichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 2, 4 dichlorophenoxyzcetic acid. Dioxin ( 2,3,7,8 -tetrachlorobidenzo-p-dioxin, or TCDD, one of the most toxic chemicals in the dioxin family) was often created during the manufacture of Agent Orange. Initially used during the 1940's to destroy unwanted plants in the United States, it was banned during the 70's because of the health problems it caused, including chloracne ( a skin disease), and possibly some kinds of cancer.
