"What does matter is a Navy Veteran who has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer can recall some of the specifics of how, where and when they were exposed to asbestos in the navy. It is this information that will become the foundation for a compensation claim as attorney Erik Karst of Karst von Oiste is always happy to discuss anytime at 800-714-0303." www.karstvonoiste.com/
Important note from the US Navy Veterans Lung Cancer Advocate: "Most people who have recently developed lung cancer do not realize that the $30 billion dollar-asbestos trust funds were set up for them too if prior to 1982 they had heavy or extreme exposure to asbestos in the navy or at work." https://USNavyLungCancer.Com
