Title: Major General Malcolm C. Grow, M.D. (1887-1960) Soldier, Surgeon, Airman. Author: Walker TR, Cowan SW, Yeo CJ, Beekley AC. Journal: Am Surg; 2017 Nov 01; 83(11):1298-1301. PubMed ID: 29183535.

New inventions such as the machine gun and poisonous gas in WWI and the massive aircraft battles in WWII required physicians and surgeons to adapt and innovate to provide the best care and preventative measures for service members.
