    U.S. Navy Corpsman stand in formation at the Naval Medical Readiness Training Center, MCAS Cherry Point, North Carolina during the 126th Hospital Corpsman Birthday Ceremony June 17, 2024, at Naval Health Clinic Cherry Point, NC. The U.S. Navy and the U.S. Marine Corps do not have medics, they have corpsmen. Established in 1898, the Hospital Corps gave the U.S. Navy the ability to give enlisted Sailors formal medical training. Corpsmen assist doctors on board ships and submarines, and some are attached to Marine units. When in combat, corpsmen are trained to run toward the action to help the wounded, often risking their own lives to do so.
