MEDICAL LT. JAMES C. STRICKLER, UC Medical Officer New York, New York Now you talk about pains . . . these people take the case. Second only to the Chaplain with shoulders broad enough for crying towels, there is no group of people more important and comforting to have aboard than our Docs. Under the direction of Lieutenant J. C. Strickler, the Medical Department is responsible for maintaining the health of the ship ' s personnel. And in places like the disease-ridden Far East such a task requires a never ending vigil, much medicine, many needles, plus a sizeable wealth of professional know- how. In the endeavor of conserving the physical power to fight the ship, the department maintains a constant check with respect to hygiene and sanitary conditions, plus instructs the crew on first-aid and personal hygiene. So whether it ' s administering an APC or performing an emergency operation the doctor and his hospitalmen have, and will, come through with flying colors. Claude E.
