Af! edical RJJ The Mad Doc in action, using a pair of surgical mag- nifying spectacles to make sure the pill count is right! Obviously, HM3 Jones is in excruciating pain! HM3 Avery Jones departed the ship in late April while in Sasebo, Japan. He gave up all this just to go to NRMC, Long Beach, CA. Good luck to a fine Hospital Corpsman and shipmate. Doc Shetzler hails from Newcastle, Dela- ware, home of the U of D's Fighting Blue Hens. HN Azeff joined the ship in May at Sasebo, Japan as HM3 Jones' relief. He comes from Reddick, FL. HM3 Jones giving HMI Shetzler a com- plete head examination making sure there are no loose screws, nuts, or bolts! So far, so good! ln the capable hands of HMI Shetzler, LEAHY's medical department does an excellent job in providing health care to the crew. Assisted by HM3 Jones and later HN Azeff, Doc Shetzler takes care of everything from the sniffles to musculoskeletal problems, minor surgery, emergency medicine, administering number- ous preventive medicine and occupational health programs, and making sure the dental health of the crew is at its peak, a big job for a two man medical department. We sometimes don't realize they're there until someone be- comes seriously ill or injured. Then we're very thankful they are.
