The volumes comprising the official history of the Medical Department of the U.S. Army in World War II are prepared by The Historical Unit, U.S. Army Medical Service, and published under the direction of The Surgeon General, U.S. Army. These volumes are divided into two series: (1) The administrative or operational series; and (2) the professional, or clinical and technical, series. Dr. Frank B. Berry attended Harvard Medical School, graduating in 1917. His medical training was interrupted by World War I, in which he served as an Army pathologist with the American Expeditionary Forces in France. Berry became the director of its first Surgical and Chest Surgical Division under Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons section. At the start of World War II, Roosevelt Hospital was asked to form the Ninth Evacuation Hospital with hospital staff, and Berry was appointed Chief of Surgery of the unit. The "Ninth Evac" was one of the earliest units ashore in the North African landing and the unit was far forward during the Tunisian campaign. The unit traveled extensively through Northern Africa, Sicily, Italy, France, and Germany before returning home. Dr. Berry also served as consultant in surgery at Allied Forces Headquarters. In 1944, he accompanied the Seventh Army during its invasion of Southern France and through the campaign to Augsburg, Germany. At the end of the war, Berry accepted the post of Deputy Chief of Public Health and Welfare of the Allied Control Commission in Germany, tasked with reopening German medical schools. He was appointed Visiting Consultant in general surgery (thoracic). He remained in the Army Reserves, becoming a brigadier general in 1949 and played a prominent part in furthering the reserve program in New York City's Military District. Between 1954 and 1961, he held the position of Assistant Secretary of Defense focusing on health and medical affairs. He developed what came to be known as the Berry Plan. The plan allowed medical students to avoid being "called up" arbitrarily, say in the middle of their schooling or in-hospital training, throwing a wrench into school enrollment plans, hospital staffing plans, and the education of many medical students. Applicants could request one of three schemes: to complete an internship year and then go in the service, to complete one year of residency then go into the service, or serve after completing full residency training. Each of these choices would then involve two years of active duty military service, and in some cases, additional reserve service years. 42,000 physicians and surgeons took advantage of the Berry Plan, including many of our own MSHS physicians and surgeons. This second volume deals in detail of special types of wounds and complications with the management of chest injuries from emergency care on the battlefield to final rehabilitation in a chest center. It also deals with the complications of chest trauma as well as foreign bodies retained in the lung, heart, and the great vessels.…
