André B. Sobocinski, historian and publications manager, Office of Medical History, BUMED

It is with great pleasure that we present to you the summer 2012 edition of THE GROG. In our attempt to meet our standards of variety, we offer you original articles on: Navy Medicine in the War of 1812, A Look Medicine and Hygiene in the Royal Navy, A Brief History of the Navy Mobile Care Team Program, Notes on the first African-American in the Dental Corps, and much more. As always, we hope you enjoy this humble tour of the seas of Navy medical culture and heritage.

The Grog is a free quarterly publication of the BUMED Communications Directorate dedicated to the promotion and preservation of Navy medical history and culture.  It was founded in 2006 as a bimonthly newsletter of Navy medical history called The Grog Ration.  For more information about this journal or if you would like to be added to the electronic mailing address please comment in this blog.
