AB ARMY 
    SERVICE FOR DISABLED VETERAN DOCTORS 
    The Surgeon General has written to physicians who are drawing compensation as a result of war wounds and who are considered physically able to render professional service, inquiring of their willingness to serve the Army Medical Department in a civilian capacity. This step was taken in view of the Army's present critical need of physicians and dentists. The letters stated, "It is possible for you to be employed in a civilian status without conflicting with the Federal Dual Compensation Status, as you can, in addition to the Civil Service pay, continue to receive your disability retirement benefits." Recipients were asked to state their availability, and their first, second and third preference for appointment in any geographic area or any Army hospital on either a full or part-time basis.FOUR NEW MEDICAL GENERALS
