BENEFIT RIDE WILL REMEMBER HUSBAND

BY CHRISTOPHER TANGUAY VILLAGER STAFF WRITER SOUTHBRIDGE — No one truly understands the struggles of a soldier except other soldiers, and no one understands the struggles of a veteran except other veterans. Bernard “Ben” Hudon was born and raised in Southbridge. Like many young men his age, Hudon enlisted in the United States Army following graduation from high school, and served two tours of duty in Vietnam. In November 2006, Hudon passed away from complications caused by exposure to Agent Orange, after years of failing health. Agent Orange was a defoliant used to clear vegetation in the jungles of Southeast Asia, the effects of which had not been thoroughly understood in humans before it was used in combat zones. Following Hudon’s death, his wife of nearly two decades, Joan, who had left her job to take care of her husband during his illness, was dis- mayed to see Uncle Sam, who Ben had willfully defended, slapping the family in the face. Because of a note on the death certificate, indicating his cause of death was not service related, Joan was Shawn Kelley photos denied Ben’s posthumous benefits.
