Which office handles claims related to Mustard Gas exposure?

The office responsible for handling claims related to Mustard Gas exposure is the Muskogee Regional Office (RO). This regional office has specific expertise and jurisdiction over claims that arise from particular environmental exposures, including those stemming from mustard gas, which has been recognized in the context of veterans’ health issues.

Muskogee is particularly known for its historical focus on specific types of claims, including those related to chemical exposure, due to its geographical location and the programs established there by the Veterans Affairs Administration.

The other regional offices listed, while capable of processing various types of claims, do not have the same historical or jurisdictional focus on mustard gas claims as the Muskogee office does. This specialization helps ensure that veterans who were exposed to such substances receive the appropriate attention and support for their claims.
