Resident fires back on range

Johnny Campbell is no stranger to Onslow County Board of Commissioners
meetings.

Campbell, who lives on High Hill Road near the Greater Sandy Run Training
Area used by Camp Lejeune, has spoken out several times about the
encroachment of the base on the areas surrounding his property and the
ear-splitting noise from nearby shooting ranges.

Monday night, at the board's regularly scheduled meeting, Campbell took the
podium again to describe how over the past two weeks, he has had to put up
with 16 hours of gunfire a day. It starts when he wakes up and sometimes
goes past midnight.

Something needs to be done, he said, and several commissioners took him up
on his plea.

"There's been unbearable noise there for the last 12 days," Campbell said.
"It doesn't do any good to call the base to complain, because they won't do
anything."
