On Sept. 25, 2018, Brig. Jill K. Faris, Deputy Surgeon General for the National Guard, hosted a group of graduate journalism students from the Medill School of Journalism, Northwestern University, at the Office of the Surgeon General, Falls Church, Va. Faris informed the students on what Army Medicine does, its priorities and mission, who we serve, and where Army Medicine will be headed in the future, including changes under military health system reform required by the National Defense Authorization Act. Although Faris had a full 3-hour session planned, she hadn't planned on the fire alarm going off. Faris didn't miss a beat, however, and continued the lecture in the parking lot.
