Not at all. The US has had a long history of having BC in its

Grunts never got poisened by Chemical defoliants dropped and sprayed by

Gunner my much vaunted and greatly respected friend I think you are telling
me fibs ???

Agent orange was not considered a war chemical. It was also used in
several other countries for what it was intended for..a defoliant, and
as such, was not considered a antipersonnel device as all the other
war gases and bio agents are.

That's like saying gasoline was a chemical agent....
