Benzene is a DIRECT link to MDS/AML.
Gasoline, diesel, jet and helicopter fuel contain benzene
Almost all solvents and cleaning fluids contain benzene
Where are you located? Perhaps I can recommend a doctor that will write a strong Nexus letter for you. Actually just noticed you are in Green Bay. At Cleveland Clinic contact Mikkael Sekeres sekerem@ccf.org

Is there proof that AO was mixed with hydrocarbons? The IOM was forgetting that this stuff was also sprayed by hand and on trucks. Was it sprayed by helicopter too? My husband was trained as an airplane mechanic, and he rode on some reconnaissance flights. I don't know a lot of details about his service, but he was in Vietnam 68-69.
