Excerpt from Annual Report of the Supervising Surgeon-General of the Marine-Hospital Service of the United States, for the Fiscal Year 1895At the opening of the active season the instructions contained in paragraph 81, Revised Regulations, relative to medical examination of surfmen, were complied with, and in two instances men were rejected on account of heart trouble. Both of these men are young and had been in service several years, have excellent records, and, until pronounced unfit for further service by the examining physician, had no idea of any such trouble.The fact of these young men being stopped in their career so suddenly and with out warning led me to investigate the matter and to ascertain, if possible, the cause, and I conclude it to be a lack of that hard physical exercise necessary to the proper condition of men called upon for work such as is found in the life-saving Service.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
