Proof Of Exposure To Herbicides

Hello,

Thought I would give a try obtaining material regarding exposure to Herbicides.

I submitted a claim to the VA in 2006. It was for the tour at Korat RTAFB, Thailand, and TDY to Kadena AB, Okinawa in 1966/1967.

I experienced cancer, and several years later, pre cancer to the larynx. Yesterday, I received their response: Denied. In order to have a chance, I am required to provide proof that herbicides were sprayed on site at Korat AB in 1966, early 1967. Appreciate any material that would satisfy VA.
