Connecticut man seeks U S compensation for Navy TACAN work
A Connecticut man with cancer seeks workers compensation rather than a Navy pension for 12 years at Quonset Point Naval Air Station Rhode Island. He says TACAN equipment exposed him to microwaves and X rays and cites a 1973 cancer death of a fellow repairman. NIOSH studies flagged potential risks but no measurements have been completed due to Navy access issues. The Navy disputes the cancer diagnosis as unverified and says only radiation level measurements are planned.
