October or August?
Last year we observed Agent Orange Awareness Month in October. We ask that you chose a photo from our album to display as your profile pic during the month of October or chose your own photo.
Help us create awareness about the deadly & toxic affects agent orange has had on our Vietnam veteran, their families & the Vietnamese people.
Still at issue is which month is AO Awareness Month - October or August. The Senate passed a Resolution last year designating August as AO Awareness Month.
Prior to this Resolution a handful of states had already designated October as AO Awareness Month. I believe that many Vietnam veterans & their families normally observe AO Awareness Month in October. Let's hope we are able to resolve this issue very soon.
The State of Maine was the only state to designate August as AO Awareness month. I have written a letter to my Senator since she was the one who
initiated the Resolution passed by the Senate last year designating August as AO Awareness Month. I hope to have this issue resolved long
before next year. Now all I need do is mail the letter!!
In the interim please change your profile picture in observation of AO Awareness Month - October 2010!!
