USA in conjunction with the Henry M. Jackson Foundation for the Advancement of Military Medicine and the Naval Institute Press has unveiled a book at the AUSA Medical Symposium and Exposition in San Antonio on June 28th honoring the practitioners of American Military Medicine.

Entitled Medics at War: Military Medicine from Colonial Times to the 21st Century, the book is written by the Historian of the Office of the Surgeon General, Dr. John T. Greenwood, and edited by Clif Berry who produced the award winning Army at War for AUSA in 2003.

Lavishly illustrated with over 150 photos and illustrations, some may mistake this for a coffee table book, a mere collection of pictures purchased in lieu of having taken your own during your own service. They would be wrong. This is the only single volume history of American Military Medicine that has appeared in many years.

Written both to inform and inspire, it provides not only an overview of battlefield medicine for the Army, but covers all the services including all the links and key specialties in the military healthcare system. Since 9/11, many Americans have renewed their faith in their country and have offered outpourings of gratitude for those who serve or have served in uniform and Medics at War should be welcomed by them.

This book honors those who have fearlessly and capably served those who have served who by dint of bad luck or enemy fire, needed a medic to save their lives, and a system of medical care to restore them to a productive life. It is a story well told, and a story that should be shared with patriots everywhere.

224 PAGES. 150 PHOTOGRAPHS. HARDCOVER. 9 X 11 INCHES.
