5. Looks like you nailed it again, Beth
Just this weekend a local vets' group took an interesting approach to public education on health issues of veterans and their families. On Saturday, a local chapter of Vietnam Veterans of America held a town hall in CA on the generational effects of Agent Orange. This is something that can be done by vets' groups and supporters in communities throughout the country.

From the advance press release:

Vietnam Veterans of America To Hold Town Hall Meeting on Generational Effects of Agent Orange/Dioxin

Santa Rosa, CA —Vietnam Veterans of America Chapter 223 in Santa Rosa will hold a Town Hall meeting to address the birth defects, diseases, and learning disabilities affecting the children and grandchildren of Vietnam veterans. The forum will be held on Saturday, October 16, 2010, at 1:00 pm, at the Santa Rosa Veterans Memorial Building , 1351 Maple Avenue, in Santa Rosa , California.

The linked press release has a local phone number for the group if you want more information.
