If you are a Navy veteran who has not yet experienced health issues due to asbestos exposure but is still concerned about it, you should monitor your health carefully. In the regrettable event that you suffer from an asbestos-related health condition, you are eligible for compensation from asbestos trust funds and VA claims. With full and fair compensation, you’ll be able to afford the medical care you need and maintain your quality of life.
