November 22, 2009, 2:24am (report abuse)I too hope to see this legislation passed. I was there from 1966-1968 as a Corpsman at the hospital. So far this year has been rough with a diagnosis and treatment for cancer, MDS and an immune system disorder. Also, I became a diabetic over 20 years ago and all the research and doctors could not determine why since there was no family history or obvious cause. Thank you Camp Lejeune!
