PaulR Posted October 31, 2010 Share #1 Posted October 31, 2010 Being a medical corpsman, I have a real soft spot for the uniforms of my counterparts. I would love to see any medical uniforms you have in your collections. If you are a former medic yourself, please post your own! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyer333555 Posted October 31, 2010 Share #2 Posted October 31, 2010 I do not have any nor have I been one. But I would be interested to see some. But start with yours if you have! Take care. Luis Ramos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garandomatic Posted November 1, 2010 Share #3 Posted November 1, 2010 I'll see what I can do pic-wise. I have a Pharmacist's mate 1st Class jumper and a WWI medical Sergeant's tunic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PvtTamura Posted November 1, 2010 Share #5 Posted November 1, 2010 This topic has my 3 medical uniforms, from my younger collecting days. (Still haven't learned much! ) I can update photos and place them in this thread if you'd like. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/ind...&hl=Emerson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captainofthe7th Posted November 1, 2010 Share #6 Posted November 1, 2010 Here are a couple that I've posted before but will gladly post again under this new topic! From a MSG who served in Korea with the 2nd ID (possibly the 9th Inf.): My cousin's - he served with the 44th Med Bde in Vietnam: And this one is no longer in my possession but still a cool medical piece: And that's all for now I suppose!

PaulR Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share #7 Posted November 1, 2010 OK. Here are mine. The DCUs(posted before) are from 2003-4 period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulR Posted November 1, 2010 Author Share #8 Posted November 1, 2010 Here is my current Dress Jacket. I love the embroidery work still used by the CG CPO insignia today. Unfortunately, the Navy no longer uses heavy embroidery for their ratings. Lets see some more medical uniforms. Please post them here... even if they are elsewhere!

paulyp99 Posted November 1, 2010 Share #9 Posted November 1, 2010 Both have been posted before but: Here is a Navy Corpsman 1st Class, It has liberty stitching on the inside. It's custom made. I think it was used in WWII, with upgraded rate from the red cross to the caduceus. I saw the inside of the sleeve and it had another rate on before. This one I found out was from a female Capitan.

MPage Posted November 2, 2010 Share #10 Posted November 2, 2010 I thought this was interesting. A varied career, and once the pocket flap is raised.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulR Posted November 2, 2010 Author Share #11 Posted November 2, 2010 Those are some really cool uniforms! That is an interesting transitional WW2 and beyond Navy jumper. I would liked to have seen his ribbon bar! The Woodland BDU is pretty cool as well! HE was someone who was proud of his enlisted time! What are the blue wings? Air Crew?

michss Posted November 2, 2010 Share #12 Posted November 2, 2010 If possible,who can show usmc service-style corpsman uniform?no matter officer of enlisted...Thanx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPage Posted November 2, 2010 Share #13 Posted November 2, 2010 The Woodland BDU is pretty cool as well! HE was someone who was proud of his enlisted time! What are the blue wings? Air Crew? Yes, enlisted aircrew. It's an unusual mixture, what with the operational Missile Badge. I recall searching the internet and finding some corroborating info about a physician of the same name, with a similar USAF background. I'd imagine it's real, based upon the badges being hidden. EDIT: Mark T. Nadeau, MD, MBA joined the Department of Family and Community Medicine in 2005 after serving 27 years as an Air Force officer. Since primary care is critical to the development of a functioning medical system in our country, he has devoted most of his medical career to the education of residents. He developed his academic leadership skills at the Faculty Development Fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco and completed a Masters Degree in Business Administration from the University of Massachusetts. He is recognized by The Certifying Commission on Medical Management as a Certified Physician Executive. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians. He has served as a Member of the Board of the National Board of Medical Examiners and has developed his leadership skills as a residency director, as a department chair, as a military commander, as a medical director, and as the Chief of Physician Education for the United States Air Force. http://profiles.uthscsa.edu/?pid=profile&id=1J80LUH8J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nkomo Posted November 4, 2010 Share #16 Posted November 4, 2010 Here is one of my best groupings in my collection. Colonel R. had a long career in the military and I still haven't quite figured everything out. Anyway, the first item is his jungle jacket when he was with the 19th Special Froces. I also have his tiger-stripe jacket from that time period. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nkomo Posted November 4, 2010 Share #17 Posted November 4, 2010 Here is one of his BDU's with the 30th Medical Brigade. I believe this uniform was from the earlier portion of his career. I don't know if you can tell from the picture, but this is one of the BDU's that has been repatched with rank. The other BDU pictured has the 30th Medical Brigade patch on the left sleeve and the 44th MEDCOM on the right sleeve. Also has Colonel rank, Dental Corps insignia, US Basic Jumpwings, and Expert Medics Badge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nkomo Posted November 4, 2010 Share #18 Posted November 4, 2010 Now...Colonel R. served a tour in Afgahnistan (served in a cobat support hospital) and two tours of duty in Iraq (373rd Dental Company). However, Colonel R. was also the Officer-In-Charge of the Jameson Combat Medic Training Center and director of the EMT classes. Thia guy ws in charge of the training of the Army medics who were in the field saving lives. This Colonel may not have been on the front line fighting insurgents, but he was in the rear making sure soldiers got the medical training they needed to help the wounded. This soldier is one of the quiet heroes that so many times people overlook. Colonel R. was also the main dentist at the Huntington, W.Va. VA hospital. In my estimation, this whole soldier's career has been about serving others! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nkomo Posted November 4, 2010 Share #19 Posted November 4, 2010 Last but not least is his Jameson Comabt Medic Training Center cap with his name embroidered on the back. Notice name is misspelled! I have several more uniforms, but they are all similar and didn't think I needed to post duplicates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPage Posted November 4, 2010 Share #20 Posted November 4, 2010 I had an army dentist's BDU once, and when I Googled the man's name, I found a photo of him wearing the exact same coat I had. Anyway, this CMB, below, is on an 82nd Airborne DCU I have - would you say that it is theater-made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMCRECON Posted November 5, 2010 Share #25 Posted November 5, 2010 I've posted most of the following uniforms a couple years ago so will only post a couple of each for reference. This one is a Pharmacist's Mate 3cl who served with a Marine rifle Company in the 6th Marine Div. The flag came with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
