A former US soldier has filed a civil lawsuit against a major military contractor claiming the Houston based company ruined his health and military career.
That former service member is David Parr who's from Ohio. He served in the army in Afghanistan.
Parr says while stationed there he was within breathing distance of KRB's waste disposal operation.
He says employees of KBR disposed of human corpses, chemicals, old batteries and much more in their burn pits.
The soldier says as a result of his proximity to the operation he was forced to inhale the fumes from the waste.

In Parr's lawsuit he says the smell from the waste burning process was so bad soldiers stationed near the burn pits had to wear inhalers at night to breath.
The suit alleges because of Parr's exposure he and other soldiers developed severe respiratory and other health related problems.
Parr alleges he had to leave (honorable discharge) the military because he could no longer pass the physical exam in the army.
Parr is represented by Houston attorney Michael Patrick Doyle in this case.
The Insite is hoping to get a comment from KBR about this lawsuit!
