🎈Happy birthday to Bureau of Medicine an Surgery! #OTD in 1842, Congress passed a U.S. Navy appropriations bill establishing five bureaus—Yards and Docks; Construction, Equipment, and Repair; Provisions and Clothing; Ordnance and Hydrography; and Medicine and Surgery. Today, BUMED is the last of the original #USNavy bureaus. For 182 years, #NavyMedicine has served as the maritime medical force to provide #QualityHealthcare for the readiness of our warfighters. We celebrate all who have contributed to our legacy! #ThisIsNavyMedicine 🔗 https://lnkd.in/eyq9ej_c
