FOREWORD
For two hundred years, since its establishment by the Continental Congress on 27 July 1775, members of the Army Medical Department have been in the forefront among American Men of Medicine in the progress of the art and science of medicine around the world.

Advances in military medicine have had a significant impact on the course of civilian medical practice, even as progress in civilian medicine has affected the military. The two fields of medicine emerge from history as a single fabric, their elements imperceptibly merged.

Presented here, in chronological order, are some of the milestones in the evolution of the United States Army Medical Department.

It is particularly noteworthy that although the number of medical officers have been few in comparison to their civilian colleagues, their accomplishments for the betterment of mankind are legion.
