I got a phone call today from a former Marine friend of mine. He had just heard of this and was quite upset. He asked me to please make a post about it to help get the word out. I found this on Marines.mil.

  1. Guess it won’t just be the anthrax shots making me glow in the dark.

  2. To find out more information regarding the Camp Lejeune water contamination, please visit the website of The Few, The Proud, The Forgotten at http://www.tftptf.com. On TFTPTF’s website, you will find an illness registry, historical documents library, photo gallery and discussion board.

  3. We are supposed to be afraid of TCE and PCE now we have to be afraid of Benzene! They did’nt tell us about that either! Lou Dobbs could care less! So could HLN! I E-Mailed them all! They said they were not interested in reporting on this. Beleive it or not Fox was on the crawler saying that the study was thrown out because they did/nt check for Benzene! Google Benzene and you’ll go to Masri&Vittatoe Erin Brokivich Law firm!

  4. Because it took a literal act of the U. S. Congress to force the USMC to make more than a half-hearted attempt to notify those they poisoned I can only assume that the senior USMC leadership’s policy was to leave their wounded behind! Marines, dependent women and children were intentionally kept in the dark until Congres passed the law mandating the USMC notify all those poisoned. Semper Fi my A**!

  5. So what are we supposed to do?/ Wait untill we Die??
