Klay South, USMC, founder of Veterans of Valor; Welcome to Veterans of Valor. I founded this organization in 2007 as a result of my own experiences as a combat wounded veteran. While clearing houses during the push into Falujah in 2004, I was shot in the face at point blank range. What followed have been years of healing, both physically and emotionally. I believe my experiences happened for a reason, and that because of them I've been equipped with a special sense of what it takes to assist and encourage recovering veterans and their families. I believe that our story of hope and healing will inspire you.

Mesothelioma Web is a great website for our Veterans fighting mesothelioma. We have prepared the Veteran section of our mesothelioma web site for veterans of the U.S. military services. Because there have been so many veterans exposed to asbestos during their service in the military, veterans are particularly at risk for mesothelioma. Throughout the 20th century the Navy and other branches of the military had asbestos products in ships, buildings, and other military facilities, and thousands of servicemen and women came into contact with asbestos fibers. Mesothelioma Web attempts to be the most comprehensive mesothelioma website on the Internet. If you can’t find what you are looking for on our site, let us know at 877-367-6376 and we will attempt to answer your questions.

Pleural Mesothelioma and Veterans As a result of their exposure during military service, U.S. veterans account for a sizable percentage of pleural mesothelioma patients. The group of veterans most at risk is naval veterans and this is a result of the mass amount of asbestos material used on naval vessels. Navy veterans who worked in shipyards or aboard vessels experienced more asbestos exposure than the average member of the Armed Forces and can claim benefits from the VA system for this service-related condition. PleuralMesothelioma.com's Veterans Assistance Department can help you with questions about veterans and asbestos-related illnesses or about potential benefits. Click on this link and fill out the form for more information.

Veterans and Mesothelioma Due to common military practices, veterans who served between 1940 and 1970 have a great risk of developing asbestos-related illnesses. Additionally, Navy personnel and workers employed in shipyards from the 1930s through the 1970s hold a greater risk of developing a disease caused by asbestos exposure. Asbestos.com offers free assistance with filing your VA claim and can make the process much easier. Our Veterans Assistance Department offers extensive experience in filing VA claims and can help any veteran coping with mesothelioma receive benefits from the VA system. For more information or free assistance regarding VA benefits, programs and eligibility, please call 800-615-2270 or contact our Veterans Assistance Department by filling out this form.

Ubon Royal Thai Air Force Base - US Air Force during the Vietnam War and today http://us-mil-thai.tripod.com/ Ubon RTAF is where I was stationed from June 1970 to June 1971. We were with the 8th Tactical Fighter Wing working on the navigational equipment mainly on the F4's. These F4's had a guidance system called LORAN C for long range navigation and this was the system that was used to direct the delivery of the bombs. They would get up in the air, punch in their mission coordinates and fly their mission. If you were stationed in Thailand during the Vietnam war, you might want to checkout these sites.
