Guest guest Posted January 24, 2011 Report Share Posted January 24, 2011 Former USS WREN DD568 shipmate...contacted me on this site over the weekend; apparently he too is experiencing prostate cancer, or have gone through it. Unfortunately, I accidently deleted his message. Just wondering if he would contact me again. Did not recall his name. Sometimes I wonder if some of us Navy and Coast Guardmen's cancer may have been caused by exposure to asbestos used extensively in WW-II and some KOREAN WAR era ships? Many of us worked in the engineering spaces on those ships during the '50s and '60s, as well a tearing the stuff out to replace the asbestos filled insulation/lagging in those confined spaces.
