Burn pits are the Post 9/11 Veterans' version of Agent Orange. I can't tell you how many days we spent in 2003 burning everything. But I'm sure the VA will find a way to make getting help because of exposure just as hard as what they did and continue to do to Veterans from Vietnam.
Burn-pit exposure likely leads to higher cancer mortality rate among Army vets: new study

Even at our small outpost, we had a burn pit that was lit for 8-10 hours per day. The slight upside was we had local nationals helping out and we had no burn items. Batteries and ammo were the most stringent, although we did accidentally have some instances of 40mm rounds making it to the burn pit. That will clench your third point of contact really fast.
The VA will do just like they did for Agent Orange. Deny and deny. And by the time most of us are passed on, they will admit to a long list of ailments that are service connected. I already know of half dozen people I served with to die from some cancer that had a strong link to burn pits.
