It was poison in the water at Camp LeJeune. TCE and PCE. If you drank, ate, washed yourself or your clothes in this water, you were and are at risk for cancer, deformities, illnesses.
Robert has non-hodgkins lymphoma from it, barretts esophagus and melanoma.
It started in his breast.
He spent 20 weeks in boot camp because they hurt him physically by giving him terrible stress fractures in his heels from extensive marching. He spent 4 weeks in the Naval Hospital because of it.
He had bones broken in boot camp, burns in his eyes from welding...etc...
Camp leJeune is under investigation due to the water and because it not only affected those that were stationed there, but was also handed down to off spring, it is a dangerous situation. You can read up on it on the "TPTFTF" website.
Semper Fidelis to you also my friend.

Dear Sandra, Being a former Marine myself I had many friends who where stationed at Camp Lejune, NC. I was supposed to go their myself but because of my Fathers illness I was transferred to a Naval Air Station in Maine. Would you share information with me about this contamination problem with me. Please just send me a message here if you want too. May God Bless you dear Sister.
Semper Fidelis.
