Mess Hall’s Report

Description

The mess halls at Camp Lejeune were heavily contaminated, primarily through the water supply. Contaminated water was used to prepare Navy bean soup, bread, and almost every other food item. It was also used for cleaning metal trays, washing floors, and sanitizing tables. Drinks contained contaminated ice from the ice plant, and steamed vegetables, which were plentiful, were cooked using steam from the steam plant. Our report questions whether the steam plant’s water ever went through a waterworks cleaning facility, as it was initially designed to heat buildings, not steam vegetables.

Reading this report may be unsettling, but it highlights the pervasive contamination that likely affected anyone who ate in the mess halls. This compelling evidence, sourced from the unbiased reports in the Camp Lejeune newspaper, “The Globe,” aims to make a judge and jury fully understand the extent of the contamination, potentially leading to higher compensation awards.
