,JJt % -«c It is easy to make comparisons between MIDWAY and a town of a like amount of citizens, but there are few if any small towns that can boast of the medical facilities available to our personnel. Due to the nature of the work on a warship, accidents of all types are inevitable. From cut fingers to amputations, Cdr Jones and his staff of doctors and corpsmen are capable of meeting any emergency. Countless illnesses from the ordinary to the bizarre, real to the imaginary, are treated each week with professional competence. A medical education program is well established that helps to offset the dangers of disease and dirt found in some of the less advanced foreign ports, and prior to deployment, each crewmember receives a series of innoculations to prevent the serious sicknesses of smallpox, typhoid fever and similar diseases. Inspecting food and water supplies and, in general, ensuring hygienic cleanliness of the entire ship and crew keep ship ' s company in top physical condition for the most effective performance of their duties. 123
