Piles? You've got piles? That's actionable. Call a lawyer, NOW!ive got piles of emails for it
From a quck google search, "possible sources of the contamination include solvents from a nearby, off-base dry cleaning company, from on-base units using chemicals to clean military equipment, and leaks from underground fuel storage tanks".Something about the water…..were there too many sea monkeys in there?
Seriously though how did the wells get so contaminated? Was it based on surface chemical usage? Who knows.

If you served at either of these locations between August 1, 1953, and December 31, 1987, you may be eligible for disability and health care benefits: Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, or Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) New River, North Carolina Keep reading on this page to learn more about...www.va.gov
More here. Looks like a typical mid century dump with lack of proper toxic dump regulations.
Dang. A well adjacent to a rifle range? Not good.
“Camp Lejeune also began testing water in its rifle range area in 1981 to see if chemicals had drifted from a hazardous waste dump to nearby water wells. These tests involved a water system separate from the one generating Neal's warnings. A rifle range water well was found to be contaminated with some of the same compounds seen elsewhere at Camp Lejeune. Three months later, engineers with oversight over drinking water at the base ordered the closure of one rifle range water well. The Corps did not respond to questions about why it closed one well with "unregulated" chemicals but kept others open. In 1982, Grainger Laboratories in Raleigh, N.C., was hired to test water at Camp Lejeune. The lab's first test shocked chemists. They found "synthetic organic cleaning solvents" contaminating water from two of the base's largest living areas, where thousands of Marines and family lived. Mike Hargett, Grainger's co-owner, told the Times that he and a base chemist urged the Marine officer with oversight over water issues to investigate and fix contamination. But Hargett said, "They would not recognize the hazard. They did not react."
Or K4K.
but Trichloroethylene was also used.
@richc Remember using this stuff to clean photoreceptor drums and belts on Xerox machines. Crappy plastic gloves and no masks.
I'd take either of those over the latest Democrat PAC ads talking about how Brandon just passed the Inflation "Reduction" Act and how we should all "thank" him... starting to see those on the cable channels.. WTF..Better than Mike Lindell. Or K4K.
"I'm Mike Lindell and let me tell you about MY COFFEE"
I can't spell, but I'm smart other ways !Is this a toast or is it missing an "o"?
I am dissapointed it is not a toast.I can't spell, but I'm smart other ways !
And the 3m hearing protection.....Wait til you get the Camp Lejune emails…..
Sorry to hear about your situation, I assume you must have symptoms they are advertising.I'm currently considering which law firm to go with. The VA has been a joke.
The drop-down menu in the link below on the right side of the page mentions Other Cancers or Serious Injury.My brother in law was a Marine Master Sgt who died last year from an extremely rare and aggressive brain tumor. He was definitely there during those times but brain tumor isn't listed on the types of cancer that count . So my sister and his kids are SOL
Yup. Liver, kidneys, colon. No fun. I had almost 2 1/2 years of that chemical stew of known carcinogens. The government has been hiding behind the NC statute of repose to prevent anyone for suing in court, but they just waived that for a two year window, which is why you are seeing the lawyers come out of the woodwork.Sorry to hear about your situation, I assume you must have symptoms they are advertising.

God bless you boys and girls unknowingly living in a toxic swamp and hopefully to hell with those who knew !Yup. Liver, kidneys, colon. No fun.
