    RAMSTEIN AIR BASE, Germany - U.S. Army 1st Sgt. Alicia Foster, 68th Medical Command, lights a candle in honor of fallen U.S. servicemembers who made the ultimate sacrifice for their country. On July 2, several hundred U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Force military and civilian medical professionals, along with their NATO and Allied partners from across Europe, gathered at the Ramstein Officer's Club for the 2025 Military Medicine Ball. The event celebrated a remarkable 250 years of military medicine, commemorating a rich legacy of service and dedication to our country. Since the nation's inception, our military medical forces have played a vital role in providing comfort, care, and compassion to the wounded, ill, and injured, ensuring the health and readiness of our fighting forces while advancing medical knowledge and practices that benefit both military personnel and civilians alike. The guest speaker for the ball was Lt. Gen. Mary Izaguirre, the U.S. Army Surgeon General and Commanding General of U.S. Army Medical Command.
