Oregon State Medical Society.

The Oregon State Medical Society was founded in Salem, Oregon in September 1874.

On July 10, 1943, the Council of the Oregon State Medical Society adopted a resolution to publish a Service Bulletin in the interest of Oregon physicians serving with the armed forces during World War II. It was to contain news of medical activities at home and of the physicians in service. The editor was G.B. McLean, chosen because of her interest in the publication and medical affairs, with Lois Douglas and Jerrine Haslinger as assistants. The Service Bulletin was published from August 1943 through September 1946, financed entirely by a voluntary special assessment on civilian members of the Society. The final issue, September 1946, contained a complete list of Oregon doctors who were or had been in service during World War II. The Service Bulletin went out without subscription fee to all members, both civilians and servicemen.
