"Veteran Service Officer: Be Wary Of Camp LeJeune Ads"

"NEW PHILADELPHIA ― We've all see the ads on television or social media in the last few weeks.

"If you or your family were stationed in Camp Lejeune between 1953 and 1987, you may have been exposed to drinking water that was heavily contaminated with toxins," one ad reads. "You may be able to qualify for significant compensation for your medical costs or lost loved ones."

Jason Thornton, veteran service officer at the Tuscarawas County Veterans Services Office, is urging veterans to call his office before talking to a lawyer."

Jon Baker reports for the New Philadelphia Times-Reporter September 9, 2022.
