Camp Lejeune toxic water supply?

[overthere]

Anyone ever heard of this, just came across some info about toxic water/ and water dringking at lejeune 1953 to 1985.  Recall something about it a while back, never gave it much thought.  Did part of my boot camp training there in 1969 for a few months.  Anything important ever come out of the medical issues about drinking the water?

I find sometimes you have some medical issues, and dont usually find out causes for some of them that had something to do with something you were involved with.  I think Uncle Sam always figures the less we know, the more money they get to keep.,,.to squander away on their stupid things.

Overthere You may be correct about what you said "Uncle Sam figures the less we know, the more $ they get to keep"; at least, it sure seems that way sometimes.

Yes there are significant benefits if you have disabilities presumed to be associated with the contaminated water. Must be between 1953-1987. See the list of disabilities here https://www.va.gov/disability/eligibility/hazardous-materials-exposure/camp-lejeune-water-contamination/ I stongly advise if you have any of these to submit a claim. You do need a current diagnosis and any med records, military or civilian, that are connected.
