 Naval Medical Center San Diego, or NMCSD, commemorates 25th anniversary of the hospital's 1988 opening and rededication. The event featured the Marine Corps Recruit Depot and NMCSD Color Guard, a musical performance by Navy Band Southwest and a cake cutting ceremony. Commander, NMCSD and Navy Medicine West delivered remarks during the ceremony. And it fills me with pride to see the one thing that has not changed, caring for others because they needed our help and because it was the right thing to do. NMCSD's origins began as a tent dispensary at Balboa Park in 1914, caring for Marines who served in the Mescan Civil War and is currently the largest military treatment facility in the Western Pacific.
