Agent Orange

Heather Pontruff is a strong outspoken advocate and investigative reporter. Until recently, however, she hadn’t delved into investigating all the odd ailments that have plagued her since birth.  After much investigating, it’s undeniable that her father unwittingly poisoned her. Her father, the late George Pontruff, was a sergeant in Vietnam. He was exposed to Agent Orange, and his body showed it before his death. PTSD is well known to have effected our Veterans. George had severe PTSD from Vietnam, which led to him eventually taking his own life. Heather struggled with her father mentally and physically since the age of 6 to keep his suicide from occurring. Now, she suffers from severe PTSD; the effects of what can essentially be known as her personal “Vietnam.” Heather’s goal is not to be an expert or a role model in the battle that Children of Agent Orange and Children of Vietnam Veterans face daily, but to educate those children, and the world, to make sure they all know that we do exist! The world needs to know that Vietnam and Agent Orange haven’t ended, and may never end since Agent Orange is a multi-generation poison.
