A psychiatrist who worked at Camp Lejeune is taking aim at the Marine Corps for what he claims was wrongful termination.
Now, there seems to be evidence of a cover up.
Dr. Kernan Manion says he was fired after complaining that marines back from combat were not getting proper care for mental disorders.
Manion worked on Camp Lejeune from January to September last year.
He’s a civilian who was hired through a private contractor to work with marines coming back from Iraq and Afghanistan.
They were marines with post traumatic stress disorder and other problems.
“It’s dangerous,” said Dr. Kernan Manion, a clinical psychiatrist. “These guys, some of these guys are suicidal, homicidal.“
He says orders to place his distressed patients on limited duty often went ignored by their commanding officers.
