Water Contamination Lawsuit News

Burn Pit exposure caused thousands of deaths of military veterans who returned home from war looking healthy, only to develop terminal cancer within a decade

Thursday, May 26, 2022 - Water contamination and air pollution are problems on all military installations in the United States and around the world as the Army, Airforce, and Marines dispose of their toxic waste by incinerating it in open-air burn pits and controlling the fires using toxic PFAS forever chemical firefighting foam. Air Force and Marine aviation facilities use firefighting foam to extinguish jet fuel fires and wash the residue into the soil which eventually contaminates the local drinking water supply. BurnPits360.com as the name implies, "... is the only 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization to offer an independent burn pit exposure registry in which family members can record the names of warriors who served the nation but have passed away due to illnesses from toxic injury." The group has focused on the thousands of unseen deaths that have occurred directly and indirectly among those who operated the pits. Their website's home page highlights three veterans who lost their lives as a result of their deployment to bases that used the burn pits. Men and women who were otherwise healthy are dropping dead from diseases that they picked up silently during their deployment during Operation Desert Storm, Enduring Freedom, and others. Most have had no family history of cancer. Veterans report developing Brain cancer, lung cancer, and myeloma from inhaling toxic burn pit fumes. Burn pits give off Benzene and Dioxins, both of which have been proven to be carcinogenic. Benzene and Dioxins are the same chemicals that are in Agent Orange, a defoliant used during the Vietnam war to destroy vegetation. Unfortunately, the Veterans Administration (VA) has denied health benefits to veterans sickened by burn pit smoke because soldiers returning from war looked healthy. There is a one to ten-year latency period until cancer takes hold and its symptoms of pain, skin lesions, and weight loss become apparent.

Until now the VA's motto has been to delay, deny, and hope you die, according to a video on this subject hosted by John Stuart, however, the Honoring Our Pact Act is legislation can change that. The Act along with the Camp Lejeune Justice Act acknowledges that developing cancer may have been service-related and open up the VA coiffeurs for veterans to receive enhanced health benefits. Marines at Camp Lejeune in North Carolina, their families, and civilian personnel who work for the military have been exposed to carcinogenic PFAS forever chemical through drinking water will be able to file a PFAS cancer lawsuit against the government for lump-sum monetary damages as added compensation for the personal injury and wrongful death that they, their spouses, and children may have suffers at the hands of the government's negligence. in the words of John Stewart when describing the government's solution to toxic waste disposal on military bases, "We went to war looking for weapons of mass destruction, and when we found none we made them ourselves (burn pits)."
