20+ Years Experience Helping Veterans With Mesothelioma Claims
20+ Years Experience Helping Veterans With Mesothelioma Claims
Asbestos exposure was a significant concern on navy aircraft carriers due to the widespread use of asbestos-containing materials for insulation, fireproofing, and construction purposes. Sailors, shipyard workers, and aviation personnel were at risk of inhaling asbestos fibers during construction, maintenance, and repair activities. Boiler rooms, engine compartments, flight decks, and living quarters contained asbestos-laden materials such as pipe insulation, gaskets, flooring, and ceiling tiles. Prolonged exposure to airborne asbestos fibers could lead to serious health conditions, including mesothelioma, lung cancer, and asbestosis. Improved safety measures and asbestos removal protocols are now implemented to protect current and future naval personnel from asbestos-related hazards.
U.S. Navy Aircraft Carriers contained asbestos-containing products and materials that were used regularly in the constructions of ships until 1980. Thousands of military veterans served on U. S. Navy ships with the peak exposure years from 1940-1980.
There are approximately 25 million veterans in the United States. Veterans exposed to asbestos are at risk of developing Mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases. The latency period for asbestos cancer can be 10-50 years after your initial exposure.
1 out of 3 veterans will develop an asbestos-related disease in their lifetime.
Pipe Insulation: Asbestos-containing pipe insulation used in the ventilation and plumbing systems exposed sailors to airborne asbestos fibers during maintenance and repair work.
Gaskets: Asbestos gaskets installed in engine components, pumps, and valves released asbestos fibers when removed or replaced, posing a risk to personnel.
Flooring Tiles: Asbestos-containing floor tiles used in various areas of the carrier, such as mess halls and living quarters, could release asbestos dust if disturbed or damaged.
Fireproofing Materials: Asbestos-based fireproofing materials applied to bulkheads, decks, and electrical equipment provided fire resistance but posed an inhalation risk during installation or repair.
Ceiling Tiles: Ceiling tiles made with asbestos materials, especially in confined spaces like control rooms, could release asbestos fibers when disturbed or damaged.
Electrical Wiring Insulation: Asbestos-containing insulation used on electrical wires and cables could release fibers during maintenance or repair work, exposing personnel to asbestos.
Boiler Insulation: Insulation materials on boilers, including asbestos-containing blankets and wraps, exposed sailors to asbestos fibers during maintenance and repair tasks.
Turbine Insulation: Asbestos insulation around turbines and other machinery posed a risk during maintenance and repair activities when fibers could become airborne.
Piping System Components: Asbestos-containing materials, such as gaskets, seals, and packing, used in piping systems could release fibers when disturbed or replaced.
Heat Shields: Asbestos-based heat shields used in engine compartments and around exhaust systems exposed personnel to asbestos fibers during maintenance or repair work.
Ventilation Ducts: Asbestos insulation in ventilation ducts and air handling systems posed a risk of releasing asbestos fibers into the air when damaged or deteriorated.
Bulkhead Materials: Asbestos-containing materials used in bulkheads and partitions could release fibers if disturbed, such as during construction, renovation, or repair work.
Deck Coverings: Asbestos-containing deck coverings, such as tiles or non-skid materials, could release fibers if damaged or deteriorated, especially in high-traffic areas.
Pump Components: Asbestos-containing gaskets, packing, and seals used in pump systems exposed personnel to asbestos fibers during maintenance and repair activities.
Valves and Flanges :Asbestos-containing gaskets and packing materials used in valves and flanges released fibers when removed or replaced, risking exposure.
Catapult System Components: Asbestos insulation and gaskets used in the catapult system exposed sailors to asbestos fibers during maintenance and repair work.
Electrical Panel Components: Asbestos-containing materials used in electrical panels, such as insulation and gaskets, could release fibers when handled or disturbed.

Cable Wraps: Asbestos-containing wraps used to protect and insulate cables exposed personnel to fibers when handling or working near them.
Radar and Communication Equipment: Asbestos-containing materials used in radar and communication equipment, such as insulation and gaskets, posed an inhalation risk during maintenance or repair.
Fuel Tanks and Pipelines: Asbestos-containing insulation and sealants used in fuel tanks and pipelines could release fibers during maintenance or repair activities.
Elevator Brake Linings: Asbestos brake linings used in elevator systems released fibers when worn or replaced, risking exposure to personnel.
Propeller Shaft Components: Asbestos-containing packing and seals used in propeller shaft components exposed sailors to asbestos fibers during maintenance and repair work.
Compressed Air Systems: Asbestos insulation used in compressed air systems, including pipes and tanks, could release fibers when damaged or disturbed.
Repair and Maintenance Materials: Various asbestos-containing materials, such as adhesives, caulks, and sealants, used in repair and maintenance tasks exposed personnel to asbestos fibers when handled or disturbed.
What Causes Mesothelioma?
The cause of Mesothelioma is exposure to asbestos materials and products. Mesothelioma is a rare and deadly type of cancer that develops in the lining of the lungs, stomach (abdomen), and the heart sac. When a person breathes, inhales or ingests microscopic asbestos fibers they can stay dormant in the body for 10-50 years before manifesting cancer symptoms.
Who is Most Likely to Get Mesothelioma?
The average age of a person diagnosed with Mesothelioma is 69 years old. People most likely to get diagnosed with Mesothelioma have worked around asbestos or may have done the laundry for a worker that was exposed.
About 3,500 people will be diagnosed with malignant Mesothelioma each year in the U. S., and more than 15,000 Americans will be diagnosed with an asbestos-related disease (asbestos lung cancer, asbestosis).
Veterans exposed to asbestos are seven times more likely to die of an Asbestos caused disease than the general population.
