Mesothelioma can affect veterans of all branches of service: Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines. As mesothelioma has a long latency period and oftenly remain dormant for many decades, veterans who served our country from 1930 through 1980 are simply now being diagnosed with the disease.
Navy veterans who worked in navy shipyards or served on our nation's warships and submarine's from WWII over the Vietnam War were encountered with high concentrations of deadly asbestos and therefore are at a risky for developing mesothelioma. Boiler rooms, engine rooms, sleeping quarters, and other aspects of naval vessels are the most frequent places where asbestos is present. Therefore, Navy veterans are in an increased chance of developing mesothelioma. Medical support and doctors are around for veterans who have been informed they have mesothelioma. Any veteran that believes they have been exposed to asbestos during their duty period should inform their doctors immediately
