#CampLejeune #Water #HealthIssues
Horrible horrible horrible these people need to be held accountable for murder
I lived at Knox Trailer Park Camp LeJeune for a year and half (1970-1971) with my Marine husband and son who was born there. My son was born with birth defect on his hand. I was 6 months pregnant when we moved there and feel if he had been conceived there he would not be here today. I have suffered multiple ovarian surgeries including hysterectomy at 30 from toxic water. I also have hypertension, thyroid cancer, diabetes, infertility, aneurysm, renal cysts, ovarian cancer and stroke. I am unable to get diagnosis for some of these conditions since it was 50 years ago. The doctors are deceased and hospital closed or do not keep medical records later than 10 years ago. The Navy should pay for the awful betrayal they committed to servicemen and their families consuming the toxic water causing horrible health conditions and even death. Tragic cover up and the VA and Department of the Navy are constantly trying to deny claims and not paying for the horrible health conditions. Shame on them!
There were Marines still getting sick from the water at Camp Lejeune in the early to mid 90's.
My mom and grandma were both there both of them passed away from cancer before they were 55 😢
You can file on behalf of them w the death certificate. I was born there in 1983 & am in the process of sueing Camp LeJune I am also doing the same for my Mother even though she passed away in 2004. Sorry for your loss, GOD BLESS 🙏
How totally tragic 😔😭
So sorry for each of you & your
wee tiny babies 😢
I'M 64 6 YEARS MARINE CORP BASE CAMP LEJEUNE !
MY CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN HAVE SIDE AFFECTS BECAUSE OF MY EXPOSURE !
Nobody Knows Until Everybody Knows.” And When Everybody Knows, IT’S ALREADY TOO LATE.
That’s absolutely horrific!!! No telling how many women, men and children have died or seriously harmed by the neglect. Each one of the families should take part in a class action suit.
My question is, How many other bases had the same issues!
“….I’ve seen some children with serious birth defect’s of all sorts and know of many people whom are too this very day pretty messed up from the water contamination on base at Lejeune”!!! G-MOMMEE
I complained several times to my superior NCO's that the water from the scuttlebutt tasted 'funny' and was told that was because I was used to 'yankee water' because i was from Detroit.
When will NBC air the rest of the story that you already have in the can?
Where is Erin fighting for these people? Screaming at the top of her lungs?🤬
I knew a Marine stationed there 2010..he contiously coughed up blood
I was only at Lejeune for a few days in 1973. Still, it makes me wonder.
right
I'VE HAVE HAD 3 LAWYERS QUIT ON ME ILL NEVER SEE ANY COMPENSATION, I SUFFER FROM NEUROBEHAIORAL EFFECTS ALL 5 OF MY GRANDCHILDREN HAVE DOWN SYNDROME MY DAUGHTER HAS ADHD, ILL BE DEAD AND NEVER SEE ANY COMPENSATION
The general knew
"Lejeune" rhymes with "Learn"
As in: "Learn how to pronounce Lejeune"
Clown comment 🤡
Still haven't figured out reparations though 🤦🏼♀️
