Summary	From its very beginning as an established Corps in 1898 the Hospital Corps of the United States Navy has been devoted to humanitarian service. It has administered first aid and nursing care to the sick and injured of the Navy and Marine Corps during three of the Nation's wars, and through the many years of intervening peace... Many young people are now debating within themselves regarding a place where they can best serve their country in an hour of need. It is hoped that this brochure of information relative to the work and mission of the Hospital Corps will help to guide them to an avenue of service. Ross T.
