(May 11, 2026) Naval Medical Forces Atlantic (NMFL, Defense Health Agency (DHA), and Navy and Marine Corps Force Health Protection Command (NMCFHPC) nursing professionals pose for a photo after a Nurse Corps birthday celebration and a blessing of the hands ceremony on board Naval Support Activity (NSA) Hampton Roads - Portsmouth Annex, May 11, 2026. Recognizing that medical personnel are often involved in the aftermath of combat, chaplains use practices like the Blessing of the Hands to strengthen spiritual resilience and reinforce the emotional and ethical readiness required in military medicine.
