Veterans with Mesothelioma and Military Bases Near Great Falls Montana

Malmstrom Air Force Base in Cascade, Montana is centrally located in the expansive state and approximately 30 minutes away from Great Falls, Montana. This base was established in 1942, after the beginning of World War II in Europe and the United States government considered several sites for the new base in 1939. The purpose of the base at its inception was to support the Soviet Union against Germany. The units hosted there at this time participated in several raids in Germany. In 21 months, there were more than 8,000 flights between Russia and the United States. Later, the base was used against the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

The base is now best known for being one of only three military bases run by the United States Air Force that is able to operate Minuteman III missiles for intercontinental use. It currently hosts the 341st Missile Wing.

Individuals who worked in the Air Force were at an increased risk of being exposed to asbestos. This dangerous material was used in various components of aircraft and vehicles used by the Air Force, including as brake liners and gaskets. Additionally, asbestos was often used to construct military bases and has been found in barracks, mess halls, sleeping quarters, officer buildings and other locations throughout bases.
