    Over the history of the Hospital Corps the Navy has continued to develop and ensure that Corpsmen always have the requisite skills for practicing their trade aboard ship and ashore. These efforts include the establishment of the first Basic School in 1902, the development of the first “C” Schools in the 1910s, the formation of the first advanced or IDC school in World War I, the advent of field medical training in World War II and Korea to the trauma training initiative and the dynamic training collaborations that we continue to build on today.
