When Rear Adm. Matthew Case took the helm as the Director of the Navy Medical Service Corps in May 2022, he was following a tradition that extended back to September 29, 1954, when Capt. Willard Charles Calkins became the first leader of the corps. Like Case, it was a position for which Calkins was primed. CAPT Willard Calkins (1899-1981), served at the first Chief of the Navy Medical Service Corps from 1954 to 1958
