Heritage Room Exhibit : Medical Cadet Corps
The Seventh-day Adventist Medical Cadet Corps trained young men and women around the world in battle field first aid to prepare participants to serve in armed forces as medics during World War II and beyond. Union College hosts a large Medical Cadet Corps collection of artifacts, photographs, and documents donated by Everett Dick and other veterans. The Medical Cadet Corps exhibit provides a self guided tour of collection artifacts, photographs, and informative posters that highlight the history of the Medical Cadet Corps origins at Union College and its spread around the world.
