When was Dr. Jack Kevorkian in Vietnam doing research on transfusions, where he contracted Hepatitis C? This was stated in the Wikipedia biography and numerous Google citations but no details could be found.

Many news sources repeat the quote":Kevorkian suffers from Hepatitis C, which he contracted during service in Vietnam."

also: Terminally ill with Hepatitis C, which he contracted while doing research on blood transfusions in Vietnam,[4] http://www.facebook.com/pages/Dr-Jack-Kevorkian/52491148136?v=info

Attorney Mayer Morganroth said today that his client, Dr. Jack Kevorkian, telephoned him a short time ago with more bad news. Morganroth said Dr. Kevorkian told him that prison doctors informed Kevorkian that his liver enzymes are now triple of what is normal.

"I'm alarmed," Morganroth said, "because it now appears that the Hepatitis C Dr. Kevorkian contacted while testing blood transfusions given to American soldiers during Vietnam is attacking his liver." http://www2.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=104&STORY=/www/story/12-06-2005/0004228994&EDATE
