The United States used Agent Orange to defoliate the dense jungle where enemy troops took cover during the Vietnam war. What lasting effect did the toxic herbicide have on the Vietnamese, U.S. troops, and on their children? Pulitzer Prize winning columnist Connie Schultz of The Plain Dealer traveled to Vietnam to explore the legacy of Agent Orange. She joins us to talk about what she found there, including an Ohio woman who was seeking her own answers. Monday at 9 on 90.3.Connie Schultz, Columnist, The Plain Dealer
