    Default Water Contamination Lawsuit At Bragg in '70s?

    My sister has informed me she saw something about a Lawsuit about water contamination at Ft. Bragg in the '70s, about the time I was there. Of course, this is the sister that usually gets the facts wrong.

    Anyone know any facts about this, I can find nothing.

    If this is a late post, I'll drop and do the appropriate number of push-ups for my lack of dilligence.

They are armed to the teeth and lack serious Adult Supervision. They collectively remember the Commander's intent as ' march to the sound of the guns and kill anyone not dressed like you.' "
