Phoenix Arizona Veteran Mesothelioma Treatment
Luke Air Force Base is located near Phoenix and Glendale, Arizona. It is one of the largest Air Force bases in the world and has more than 200 units. It was established in 1940.
The Barry M. Goldwater Range is also located near Phoenix, Arizona. Air Force and Marine Corps pilots use it for live fire and bombing exercises. Service members also use the range for training evaluations. The range is also used as the Gila Bend Auxiliary Air Force Field where technicians, managers, biologists and archeologists are trained.
Because the Air Force extensively used asbestos in planes and buildings where service members lived, worked and ate, former Air Force members could have been exposed to asbestos through their service.
