USPHS and NOAA (the two uniformed services not considered "Armed") can be militarized by executive order of the president. Just food for thought, but I still think USPHS is an important and oft-overlooked aspect of health care in the U.S. Well, even pacifists may have difficulty here.

I was looking for a way to service my country but as a pacifist I had a hard time dealing with joining an armed service branch. This is perfect! Thanks for running this story.

We are looking for U.S. communities with high needs for medical doctors to place our residents. The AED medical residents must go to Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education certified programs. They are ECFMG certified.

As a nurse officer who has served with the USPHS for the past 7 years I have had the good fortune of finding out about one of the best kept secrets this nation has to offer-The U.S. Public Health Service. I now have a new assignement in the Division of Recruitment after serving with Indian Health for 6 1/2 years. In the coming months I hope to be able to share additional information about career opportunities with agencies like Indian Health Services for health care professionals. Thanks for the comments.

I was always a little in shock when I saw people in military uniforms, yet they had beards (a la former surgeon general C. Everett Koop and David Satcher). Seriously, how come they get to have beards? Not fair!!! Yeah, I agree that the US PHSCC does not get much coverage.
