Changes for Gulf War Claims and for Vietnam Agent Orange Claims

In the last few months, the federal government issued new rules that affect service-connected disability claims for Gulf War Syndrome-related ailments and for Agent Orange-related ailments.

The government has expanded the types of medical conditions for which veterans in these two claim categories can receive presumptive service connection (which may make some claims much easier for those affected veterans).

If you are a Gulf War-era veteran who served in the southwest Asia theater, or if you are a Vietnam-era veteran who served in or traveled through Vietnam, you should consult with a VA-accredited attorney to see if these recent changes might affect your rights.
