every birthday i have a medical (blood test etc) and prostate check.
this time i found out i have prostate cancer.luckily it was found early so it can be fixed. first choice it can be taken out by keyhole surgury . second choice by seed brachytherapy( look it up on the internet) this may be my choice because of early stages and is less invasive. my specialist seems to think it could be related to agent orange ( even though we were in vung tau) the water stunk.( who knows) what i am saying is before it is to late go and have a prostate check. trevor waye

Trev, sorry to hear about your problem, i was under the impression that wankers never got prostate problems.(joking mate.)
They have 76 pages of facts about how agent orange never broke down during the evaporation process and we drank the delta water for weeks after getting back to Sydney. I did eight trips so do the maths, we are all time bombs ready to go off. I have many health problems caused by that time but D.V.A. told me to comeback and see them when i get cancer, i told that dick that with all my problems who wanted that. They want us all to kick the bucket before they will admit liability to most problems caused by agent orange.
Your old shipmate, George Starcevich, (Starkey)

Two years ago my Doc called me in for a "check-up" . He's ex -Pussers and talks the same lingo , handy that .
Anyway , during the check-up he asked if all my family were OK . " No'. Sez I ."Dad's got Prostate Cancer ".
"In there , daks off , hands on knees and prepare to receive !!" Shocked
Well I did and he did and I was a very lucky Fella . Very Happy
Now get checked yearly .
Shit water , smokes , booze or heredity and I had it all , doesn't matter ......GET CHECKED NOW!!!!
