Other Memories The medical dispensary was a quonset-type building. We were almost like a medical independent unit, had our own little radiology/dental/laboratory/surgical/patient ward/departments. We numbered 3-HN'S, 3- HM3'S, 2-HM1'S, 2-CPO'S, & 2 Medical Corps Officers. Also 2 Dental techs & 1 Dental officer.
