Happy 234th Marines! Attempting to protect the rights of even those who would disband us.

Yep, the good ole public works folks at CLNC really screwed us....literally. I am in that bunch who drank the tainted water. My name is on that list and I guess one day when I die from some sort of new cancer, the govt will pay off for my family. LOL:banana:

Still to this day we're cautioned on drinking the water because of some trace chemical that I can't even pronounce that is said to cause cancer. There are bulletins posted all over Geiger squad bays and one of our Sgts here already warned me about it.
