Lung cancer was nearly 20% higher than expected among both engine crews and non\u2010engine crews. An excess of colorectal cancer bordering on statistical significance was seen among non\u2010engine crews (SIR\u2009=\u20091.14; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.98\u20131.32). Land\u2010based personnel and personnel who served aboard after 1987 had lower lung cancer incidence than expected (SIR\u2009=\u20090.77; 95% CI\u2009=\u20090.64\u20130.92). No elevated risk of laryngeal, pharyngeal, or stomach cancers was seen.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>The overall increase (65%) in mesotheliomas among military Navy servicemen was confined to marine engine crews only. The mesothelioma incidence can be taken as an indicator of the presence or absence of asbestos exposure, but it offered no consistent explanation to the variation in incidence of other asbestos\u2010related cancers.
