Naval Air Station Cecil Field toxic exposure cancer claims

Naval Air Station Cecil Field was established in 1941, shortly after the assault on Pearl Harbor, to provide combat training for replacement pilots. The Navy then expanded the location by 2,000 acres to create a master jet base. In the 1950s, the site was repurposed as an operational base for fleet aircraft units and was one of only four such stations in the nation. Among the base's primary responsibilities were the maintenance and operations of weaponry and aircraft. Between 1983 and 1985, environmental studies have been performed at Cecil Field as part of the Department of Defense Installation Restoration Program, which aims to discover, investigate, and clean up pollution from hazardous chemicals at military sites. Hazardous chemicals were discovered at 18 waste disposal areas around the base as a result of these investigations. Due to the fact that military firefighters used AFFF to put out aircraft fires, PFAS were eventually spilled into the environment, where they would remain. If you are a former serviceman or a family member of one who has been stationed on Naval Air Station Cecil Field for at least one year and developed a life-threatening condition, you are entitled to financial compensation.
