Camp Lejune, NC; Anyone suffer from the poisoned water supply? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/camp-lejune-nc-anyone-suffer-from-the-poisoned-water-supply <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I believe the time frame is mid 1950&#39;s to mid 1980&#39;s. I was there in the early 1970&#39;s and just wondering IF that is the cause of my bladder cancer. I underwent bladder resection in 2018 and so far so good.
