Biographical History

War Department General Order no. 1 for 1904 required "every staff corps and department, regiment, battalion not forming part of a regiment, and independent troop, battery, or company" to keep "a detailed history of the services of the organization. This history will, at all times, be kept as nearly up to date as possible."

From the guide to the Papers pertaining to the current history of the U.S. Medical Dept., 1905-1913, (History of Medicine Division. National Library of Medicine)

In 1911, by an act of Congress, the Dental Corps of the Army was established and attached to the Medical Department.

From the description of Summary of orders for contract dental surgeons, 1901-1911. (Unknown). WorldCat record id: 14308291
