Navy veterans face a higher risk of mesothelioma from asbestos exposure on ships. Asbestos is the leading cause of this cancer. In addition to VA-benefits, veterans may qualify for financial compensation. Legal settlements often range from $1 million to $2 million.
Aaron Munz: How Can The Mesothelioma Center Help Veterans
Navy veterans are disproportionately affected by mesothelioma due to the amount of asbestos materials that were on every Navy ship whose keel was laid laid down before nineteen eighty three. Navy ships, on average, contained over two hundred different materials and products that contained asbestos. So even if navy veterans didn't directly perform those operations, they were exposed in their birthing areas, in the dining facility, and during their work aboard the ship.

Mesothelioma in the Navy
The U.S. Navy used asbestos in more than 300 shipboard products from the 1930s through the early 1980s, exposing millions of sailors and producing the highest per-capita mesothelioma rate in the U.S. military. The primary cause of this aggressive cancer is asbestos exposure.
Key Facts About Navy Veterans and Mesothelioma
~33% of all U.S. mesothelioma diagnoses involve veterans and Navy veterans make up the largest share
18 Navy Military Occupational Specialties are classified as “highly probable” for asbestos exposure
20 to 60 years is the typical latency period from first exposure to diagnosis
$4,158.17/mo is the maximum VA disability compensation at 100% rating with a spouse in 2026
$1,699.36/mo is the 2026 base DIC rate for surviving spouses
$1M to $2M is the typical negotiated mesothelioma settlement range and $70.8M is highest reported Navy trial verdict
Because of their resistance to heat, the Navy relied heavily on asbestos products from the 1930s through the early 1980s, especially on ships. Because mesothelioma takes 20 to 60 years to develop, most Navy veterans are still receiving diagnoses today.
Navy veteran John Conway served on naval vessels involved in retrieving Mercury, Gemini and Apollo space capsules. While assigned to the USS Wasp, he also worked stripping asbestos from pipes below deck. “It used to look like it was snowing down there,” he told us. At the time, he and other sailors were unaware of the health risks exposure to asbestos posed.
Survivor Experience
I grew up wanting to be in the Navy, probably since I was 12 years old. I was proud to be there, proud to serve. It was fun, too. It took me around the world three times. I never thought about any long-range danger.

Are Navy Veterans Still at Risk of Developing Mesothelioma?
Navy veterans are still at a higher risk of developing mesothelioma. The long latency period means people exposed decades ago may only now develop cancer. Also, while veterans with heavy and prolonged asbestos exposure in the past are most at risk, young Navy personnel and their families can be exposed today. Legacy asbestos products remain in older ships and buildings on Naval bases, including housing.
Sailors can also accidentally carry fibers home on their uniforms, skin or hair, putting family members at risk of secondary asbestos exposure. Family members who have regular contact with contaminated laundry or gear could inhale asbestos fibers.
Navy veterans and family members with a history of asbestos exposure should ask their doctor about mesothelioma screening tests. Catching the cancer before it progresses increases your chances of being eligible for more aggressive curative treatments, which can improve outcomes. Our Veterans Department can help you navigate finding and covering treatment with the VA.
Navy veterans were exposed to asbestos through three primary routes: shipboard insulation and machinery, shore-based construction and base housing and secondary exposure carried home on uniforms. It was found throughout Navy vessels in equipment, pipes and engine rooms. Navy base housing and buildings also contained asbestos products, putting service members, civilian workers and military families at risk.
Even today, personnel in combat zones may be exposed if older buildings are damaged. Veterans of the U.S. Navy, Coast Guard and Merchant Marines all face potential asbestos exposure from various sources during their service.
Navy veterans with mesothelioma may qualify for VA benefits even without complete service records. A veteran’s military occupational rating and the ships they served on usually provide sufficient evidence to support a claim.

Highest-Risk Naval Occupations
The Department of Defense identifies 18 Navy Military Occupational Specialties as “highly probable” for asbestos exposure. Building on this, the Department of Veterans Affairs maintains its own list of high-risk military jobs to determine VA disability benefits eligibility. These include shipyard work, construction, demolition, carpentry, roofing and working with brake linings. Shipyard workers remain at risk today when dismantling older decommissioned vessels built with asbestos materials.
Highest-Risk Navy Occupations
Aviation Fire Control Technician (AQ)
Boilermaker (B & BR)
Boiler Technician (BT)
Fire Controlman (FC)
Fire Control Technician (FT & FTG)
Firefighter (FN)
Hull Maintenance Technician (HT)
Instrumentman (IM)
Pipefitter (FP)
Sonarman (SO)
Soundman (SoM)
Sonar Technician (ST, STG, SOG & STS)
Utilitiesman (UT)
Water Tender (WT)
Fire controlmen and firefighters were at significant risk from burning asbestos products. Some gear for fire crews was made with asbestos for its fire resistance. Confined spaces such as boiler rooms, engine compartments and pump rooms with poor ventilation kept airborne fiber levels dangerously high.
Navy veterans who served in one of these occupational specialties and have a mesothelioma diagnosis should contact a VA-accredited claims agent. The VA recognizes mesothelioma as service-connected in Navy cases.
Asbestos Exposure Aboard US Navy Ships
Lower-deck spaces on Navy Ships like engine rooms, boiler rooms and pump rooms exposed everyone on board to significant levels of asbestos. Both Navy personnel and U.S. Marines who lived and worked on these vessels were at risk, as concentrations of the toxic airborne particles were high throughout the ships.
Poor ventilation and tight quarters allowed asbestos fibers from insulation, boilers, gaskets and flooring to spread throughout the ship, putting crew members at risk even if they never worked directly with the materials. Submarines and aircraft carriers were particularly hazardous because of confined ventilation and the volume of asbestos insulation present.
Shipyards such as Bremerton Puget Sound, Long Beach, Portsmouth and Norfolk were also high-risk work sites. Builders, repairers and dismantlers encountered high concentrations of airborne asbestos.
Secondary Asbestos Exposure
Navy bases presented secondary exposure risks. Asbestos fibers carried on uniforms and gear could spread through shared spaces like barracks and common areas, exposing personnel beyond those in higher-risk jobs. Families dining, shopping and enjoying other shared spaces across the base were also at risk.
Fibers could also travel home on uniforms, skin or hair, exposing spouses and children. Studies have documented mesothelioma in spouses who regularly laundered their partner’s work clothing and in children who greeted a parent at the door after a shift.
Secondary asbestos exposure occurs when a Navy sailor unknowingly carries toxic asbestos fibers home on their uniform, skin or hair, exposing spouses and children. Studies have documented mesothelioma in spouses who regularly laundered their partner’s work clothing and in children who greeted a parent at the door after a shift. Family members of Navy veterans who develop mesothelioma may file civil lawsuits against asbestos manufacturers independently, separate from any VA benefit the veteran received.
Asbestos Products Used in the Navy
Asbestos-containing products were used throughout Navy ships, from the deck to the engine room, because of their durability and resistance to heat, fire and saltwater corrosion. Materials like insulation, machine parts and safety gear often contained asbestos and could release harmful fibers when damaged, putting sailors who performed repairs and maintenance at higher risk of exposure.

Navy veteran Jim A., who served on the USS Renville in the 1960s, told us, “You could say I was shocked about my pleural mesothelioma diagnosis. But not that big of a shock because I had always wondered after hearing so much about how dangerous asbestos turned out to be. I’m told, though, it was caught early.”

Mesothelioma Survivor, a Navy Veteran, Defies the Odds
Navy veteran Bob Niemiec is a mesothelioma survivor who even doctors say defied the odds. “Every doctor we’ve seen all said it’s impossible medically for this man to still be alive, so it’s just not his time to go,” said Jeannie, his his wife of 55 years. Bob entered the Navy in 1965 at the age of 20. His first assignment out of boot camp was to scrape paint off of the landing ship U.S.S. Hermitage. It turns out the paint he was scraping contained asbestos.
Navy veterans with mesothelioma have access to advanced treatment through the VA health system, including the same first-line therapies offered at top private cancer centers. Treatment options range from standard chemotherapy and immunotherapy to surgery, multimodal approaches and cutting-edge clinical trials.
Mesothelioma Treatment Options for Navy Veterans
Chemotherapy: Standard regimens combine Alimta (pemetrexed) with a platinum agent like Platinol (cisplatin) or Paraplatin (carboplatin).
Clinical trials: Emerging options include gene therapy, enzyme therapy, photodynamic therapy and targeted treatments such as Lynparza (olaparib) and Tazverik (tazemetostat).
Immunotherapy: FDA-approved options include Keytruda (pembrolizumab) with chemo and Opdivo (nivolumab) combined with Yervoy (ipilimumab) for unresectable pleural mesothelioma.
Multimodal therapy: Combining surgery, chemo and immunotherapy has produced the strongest outcomes, particularly in long-term survivors.
Surgery: Procedures such as pleural decortication focus on specific regions and are generally an option for early-stage, epithelioid-type disease.
For Navy veterans not living near a specialist, the VA offers virtual appointments, remote case management and reimburses travel for covered care. A mesothelioma specialist can help determine the right treatment plan based on cancer stage, cell type and overall health.
VA Treatment Centers
The VA operates dedicated mesothelioma treatment programs at major medical centers in Boston, Los Angeles, Houston, Miami and Atlanta. Each center’s close partnerships with leading medical schools and cancer research programs give veterans access to specialized mesothelioma care within the VA system.
The VA has mesothelioma specialists across the country who provide cutting-edge treatments to veterans, including many Navy veterans, coping with this aggressive cancer. These experts specialize in mesothelioma care and have extensive experience managing complex treatment plans aimed at helping patients live longer, healthier lives.
Mesothelioma specialists bring focused expertise in this rare cancer that translates directly into more treatment options and better outcomes for veterans. Because so few oncologists encounter mesothelioma in practice, finding a specialist with real experience treating it is one of the most important steps a veteran can take after diagnosis.
Dr. Robert B. Cameron developed a lung-sparing surgery for pleural mesothelioma that not only extends survival but offers greater quality of life by preserving the lung. Cameron’s surgery has a lower risk of complications and studies report longer survival times.
Dr. Eric S. Lambright is chief of thoracic surgery at Nashville Veterans Affairs Medical Center. He is actively involved in groundbreaking research for thoracic malignancies such as mesothelioma and lung cancer.
Navy veterans with mesothelioma qualify for up to $4,158.17 per month in tax-free VA disability compensation when rated 100% service-connected, plus full access to VA medical care. The VA supports veterans based on service-connected disabilities, medical conditions and financial need. For most veterans, VA disability compensation delivers the greatest financial benefit.
Available Benefits for Navy Veterans
Aid and Attendance: Provides additional monthly payments to veterans who need help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing or eating.
Caregiver Benefits: Comprehensive Assistance for Family Caregivers provides eligible family caregivers with a monthly stipend, respite care and mental health counseling.
Funeral and Burial Reimbursement: The VA reimburses burial and funeral costs, with higher amounts available when death is service-connected. A plot allowance is also available for burials outside national cemeteries.
Housebound Benefits: Additional pension payments for veterans whose illness limits them primarily to their home. Similar to Aid and Attendance but can’t be received at the same time.
Special Monthly Compensation: Tax-free payments for veterans whose condition requires regular in-home care or assistance beyond what standard disability compensation covers.
VA Dependency and Indemnity Compensation: Also known as DIC, provides tax-free monthly payments to surviving spouses and dependents of veterans whose death was service-connected. The 2026 base rate for a surviving spouse is $1,699.36 per month.
VA Disability Compensation: Tax-free monthly payments for veterans with service-connected mesothelioma, up to $4,158.17 per month depending on disability rating and family status.
VA Geriatric and Extended Care: Covers respite care, home health care, palliative care and assisted living or nursing home care.
VA Health Care: Free or low-cost health care for eligible veterans, including access to mesothelioma specialists within the VA health system.
VA Pension: Monthly payments for veterans and surviving spouses who meet income and net worth requirements.
Veterans who are married, have dependent children or care for family members with special needs may be eligible for additional compensation. These benefits can also extend to spouses and dependent children after the veteran’s passing. Even if your mesothelioma isn’t officially linked to your military service, you may still qualify to receive treatment through the VA health care system.
How to File a VA Mesothelioma Claim in 5 Steps
Navy veterans can file a VA mesothelioma claim in 5 steps. Even with incomplete service records, most veterans have enough documentation to support a successful claim.

What Do Navy Veterans Need to Prove Asbestos Exposure Without Complete Records?
Most Navy veterans don’t need to prove a specific asbestos exposure incident. A military occupational rating plus a list of ships served usually provides sufficient evidence for a VA service-connection claim.
Types of Supporting Evidence
Buddy statements: Written accounts from fellow crew members who can speak to your exposure
DD-214: Your military service record showing your rating and duty stations
Ship records: Deck logs and maintenance records available through the National Archives
VA ship list: The VA’s published list of ships and occupational ratings associated with asbestos exposure
A VA-accredited claims agent can request these records on your behalf and put together an exposure summary to submit with your claim. You don’t need to gather this evidence yourself before reaching out for help.
Navy Asbestos Settlements and Legal Claims for Veterans
Navy veterans can’t sue the U.S. government for asbestos exposure under the Feres Doctrine, but they can sue private asbestos manufacturers. Many have won verdicts ranging from $5 million to more than $70 million.
Notable Asbestos Verdicts and Settlements Involving U.S. Navy Veterans
$70.8 Million: U.S. Navy machinist Robert Whalen received this trial award in 2014 for developing mesothelioma after working with John Crane’s asbestos gaskets during his 26-year Navy career.
$40 Million: U.S. Navy veteran Walter Twidwell received this trial award in 2018 against Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., after being diagnosed with mesothelioma. Twidwell served as a boiler tender during his service.
$6.5 Million: A jury awarded Navy shipyard worker George Parker this award in 2016 after he developed mesothelioma from exposure to asbestos gaskets while working at Norfolk Naval Shipyard.
$5.2 Million: The surviving family of Richard Walmach received this award in 2007 in a wrongful death case after he developed mesothelioma from removing asbestos insulation at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard. The court found Foster Wheeler Corp. failed to warn him about the dangers of its asbestos products.
Mesothelioma settlements for Navy veterans typically pay $1 million to $2 million. Legal compensation is independent of VA benefits. Receiving one doesn’t reduce or disqualify eligibility for the other. Veterans can also file asbestos trust fund claims and civil lawsuits simultaneously.
Common Questions From Navy Veterans With Mesothelioma
When did the Navy stop using asbestos?
The U.S. Navy stopped specifying asbestos in new ship and base construction in 1983. Asbestos already installed on existing vessels and facilities wasn’t fully removed or encapsulated until the late 1990s. Navy veterans who served between 1930 and 1983 face the highest mesothelioma risk.
Do Navy ships still have asbestos?
Some older Navy ships still contain encapsulated asbestos, but new construction hasn’t used asbestos-containing materials since the early 1980s. Asbestos that remains is generally safe unless physically damaged or disturbed during repair, demolition or fire.
What should I do if I believe I was exposed to asbestos while serving?
Navy veterans who suspect asbestos exposure during service should take these three steps:
3 Steps to Take After Suspected Asbestos Exposure
Tell your primary care doctor about your Navy service history and ask for a mesothelioma screening, including a chest CT and pulmonary function test.
Contact a VA-accredited claims agent to start documenting your exposure and understanding your benefit eligibility.
Consult a mesothelioma attorney to understand your civil lawsuit and trust fund options.
Taking these steps as early as possible gives you the best chance of accessing treatment and compensation. Early diagnosis significantly improves treatment options and outcomes.
What compensation is available for Navy veterans with mesothelioma?
Navy veterans with mesothelioma are eligible for monthly VA disability compensation, and may also file asbestos trust fund claims and civil lawsuits against manufacturers. These 3 compensation sources aren’t mutually exclusive, and pursuing one doesn’t reduce or eliminate eligibility for the others.
VA disability compensation for a married veteran at 100% disability is $4,158.17 per month, tax-free. Most mesothelioma lawsuits end with a settlement, and the average payout is $1 million to $2 million, according to the latest Mealey’s Litigation Report.
What is the Asbestos Medical Surveillance Program?
In the 1970s, the Navy established the Asbestos Medical Surveillance Program. The Asbestos Medical Surveillance Program monitors the health of veterans and civilians who were exposed to asbestos while working for the Navy and other military branches. This program helps track the medical status of people with known military occupational asbestos exposure to screen for mesothelioma and asbestosis. It also documents service-related exposure. This is important for filing a VA claim.
What happens to my family’s VA benefits after I pass away?
Surviving spouses and dependents of Navy veterans who died from service-connected mesothelioma may qualify for VA Dependency and Indemnity Compensation, which provides tax-free monthly payments. The 2026 base DIC rate for a surviving spouse is $1,699.36 per month. Surviving family members may also file a wrongful death lawsuit against asbestos manufacturers, and the estate can file asbestos trust fund claims after the veteran’s passing.
How much can a Navy veteran get for mesothelioma?
A Navy veteran with mesothelioma can receive up to $4,158.17 per month in tax-free VA disability compensation when rated 100% service-connected. Most veterans also qualify for asbestos trust fund payouts ranging from $30,000 to $300,000 or more per trust, and civil lawsuit settlements averaging $1 million to $2 million. These three pathways are independent and pursuing one doesn’t reduce eligibility for the others.
Why are Navy veterans at higher risk for mesothelioma than other branches?
Navy veterans face the highest mesothelioma rate of any U.S. military branch because the Navy used asbestos in more than 300 shipboard products from the 1930s through 1983. Confined ventilation in engine rooms, boiler rooms and submarines concentrated airborne fibers far above any land-based environment. The Department of Defense classified 18 Navy occupations as “highly probable” for asbestos exposure, more than any other branch.
