Pendleton Contamination

Question:

Jim, I was stationed at Camp Pendleton for school from October thru December of 1984. 5 years ago I developed esophageal cancer. I have had surgery to remove the cancer but still have medical issues persisting. I have read about Camp Pendleton's toxic history and was wondering if I was exposed and contracted the cancer from Camp Pendleton. Please advise. Thank you.

 

Jim's Reply:

Camp Pendleton is a Superfund Site so it's known to have various and assorted contaminated regions and you aren't the only one who has concerns. I was there as a youngster...and Lejeune too. My dad got around in the Old Corps!
 

Whether or not your cancer was caused, contributed to or aggravated by your service at Camp Pendleton is a matter for you to discuss with one of the many expert lawyers who have advertised their services on the Internet.
 

I'd suggest that you do a quick Google search for lawyers who represent actions regarding Camp Pendleton contamination and start making phone calls and getting as much info as you can. 
 

Good luck sir.
