in need around the globe. Working with a team of talented

do in a variety of settings: * Military treatment facilities (in
the U.S. and overseas)* Austere environments (i.e. deployments,
humanitarian aid missions)* Onboard ships (aircraft carriers,
hospital ships) Nursing in an austere environment could mean taking
part in humanitarian relief efforts, such as administering infant
vaccinations in developing countries, or providing emergency care
to victims of a natural disaster. Navy Nurses collaborate with
physicians, surgeons, cardiologists and fellow nurses as colleagues
and equals. Navy Nursing provides opportunities to develop
leadership skills that will set you apart. WORK ENVIRONMENT Active

Medical Centers in Bethesda, Md.; Portsmouth, Va.; and San Diego,
Calif. Or you could provide medical support aboard one of two

ship, working closely with a nearby aircraft squadron, or even with
