It is a matter of National importance to know what happened to the Exxon Valdez oil spill cleanup workers & their children. Is this the common chemical of harm for vets of all eras? PSA - Avoid 2-BE - Hypothalamus? This is the list of harm put forward by the Vietnam Vets. Except for the couple of things Dioxin (Agent Orange does) ... the rest of the list of what happened to the Vietam vet is the same for WWII vets and others:
Actually I already excluded the item that Dioxin would cause ... and leave what 'the other chemical does"
Soft tissue sarcomas ... all of them

The Chemical exposure that would do ALL of these things was the other chemical in the mix:
Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether or modern name since its widespread use 1930s on is 2-butoxyethanol. It causes autoimmune hemolytic anemia that is hard to find ... but findable.
It causes lots and lots of birth defects & people are easily exposed today.
