The TAMC CADUCEAN is a quarterly newsletter for the staff members at Tripler Army Medical Center, Hawaii, produced by the TAMC Public Affairs Office. The original TAMC Caducean Newspaper was born in May 1945 and ran bi-monthly until 1987. During the '40s and '50s and through the '60s and '70s, TAMC was a hub of care and entertainment provided for Soldiers as they transitioned in and out of the Pacific during the war. Legendary performers graced the halls of the hospital like Louie Armstrong, Jack Lord, 4 Freshman, the Brooklyn Dodgers 1995 World Champions, and more. Tripler was more than a hospital; it was an oasis for families, Soldiers, and the community. The four-page TAMC Caducean was printed and distributed throughout the local community and became a mainstay newspaper in Honolulu to see what the military was doing during the war. The Caducean reported not only medical news but U.S. Army Pacific news, sports, and everyone's favorite - entertainment. Today, that newspaper has largely been replaced with social media as the age of newspapers is rapidly coming to an end. However, the honorable work of TAMC and its staff continues. So in late 2018, The TAMC CADUCEAN was brought back from its 1987 resting place to its newest form, as a TAMC Newsletter for our honored staff. Today, we still have Hollywood knocking on our door, Soldiers deploying, and a world-class medical team serving our patients. We hope the Caducean Newsletter brings those stories a little closer to you along with the outstanding events and efforts happening in our halls every day as we deliver world-class health care to all we are honored to serve.
