I was aboard the U.S.S. Cavalier for it's WESTPAC cruise from March 1966 to September 1966. During that time we served as a support ship in Danang harbor for several months and I'm told we carried Agent Orange as part of our cargo. I did not find the Cavalier on the list of ships listed as exposed to Agent Orange. A shipmate of mine told me he filed for benefits and said the Cavalier was officially listed as serving as a "brown water" ship. Is the Cavalier an official Brown Water ship?
