Medical Service Corps officer assigned to Navy Medicine Readiness Training Command Bremerton pause for a group photo-op during celebrating the 78th birthday of their corps on August 4, 1947.

We represent the scientists, administrators and clinicians. We’re not the doctors. We’re not the nurses. We are the force multipliers. We’re the heart of the hospital. We’re the calm that keeps everything going. We make sure logistics are there, lab results are coming, and prescriptions are getting out,” remarked Capt. Karla Lepore, Naval Hospital Bremerton director, NMRTC Bremerton commanding officer and MSC officer and occupational therapist.
