Proud of my dad Lynn Enquist .. On #VeteransDay it is important to recognize those who served in the US Public Service Health Service. #USPHS is dedicated to the nation's public health & Science. Most don’t know about USPHS & it’s role in protecting us & that it is one of the uniformed services 🧪🛟

Picture of Lynn Enquist - On Veterans Day it is important to also recognize those who served in the US Public Service Health Service. The USPHS Commissioned Corps works on the front lines of public health. They are an elite team of highly qualified public health professionals dedicated to delivering the nation's public health programs and advancing public health Science. Although not an armed service, it is part of the uniformed services. Lynn is a veteran of the Public Health Service. He served 9 years as Lt. Commander and then promoted to Commander at the National Institute of Health (NIH). I am so very proud of his service to the country.
