The Secretary of the Navy @SECNAV told the world Sgt. Kevin Lee Lloyd’s children would receive combat-related benefits and be guided through the process.
Today, those benefits were denied by the CRSC board.
Sgt. Kevin Lee Lloyd was poisoned during Operation Iraqi Freedom in 2007 while serving with 2nd Battalion, 3rd Marines, Fox Company out of Kaneohe Bay—after being ordered into burn pits.
That exposure led to the cancer that killed him.
The Marine Corps took two years to process his paperwork—and didn’t approve his medical retirement until the day after he died.
Now the CRSC board says only he could apply.
He’s dead.
So our three children—including our son with Type 1 diabetes—have been denied the benefits he paid for with his life.
This is exactly why the Major Richard Star Act matters.
