Royal Canadian Medical Service

The Royal Canadian Medical Service (RCMS, French: Service de santé royal canadien) provides medical support for the Canadian Forces (CF) both at home and abroad. It is also a personnel branch of the CF. The RCMS along with the Royal Canadian Dental Corps (RCDC) form the Canadian Forces Health Services Group (CF H Svcs Gp). The RCMS was formerly named the Canadian Forces Medical Service until it was renamed on October 9, 2013.

Motto and march

Militi Succurrimus (We hasten to aid the soldiers) is the official branch motto. " The Farmer's Boy" is the branch march. This march was selected by Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother (mother of Queen Elizabeth II).

Roles and identification

Medical personnel of the CF H Svcs Gp provide operational (deployed) and operational readiness (in-garrison) medical care to entitled personnel.

Uniforms

RCMS personnel wear the same uniforms as other members of the CF with unique identifiers depending on which distinctive environmental uniform (DEU) they are assigned (Navy, Army, Air). Regardless of environment, all officers and non-commissioned members (NCMs) wear the same cap badge. The only difference between the cap badges is that the staff of Æsculapius on NCM badge comprises a gold serpent on a gold staff whereas on the officer badge comprises a silver serpent on a gold staff.

Cave

Cave

by: Muse

Leave me alone it's nothing serious
I’ll do it myself
It's got nothing to do with you
And there's nothing that you could do
You can see it and you can almost hear it too
You can almost taste it
It's nothing to do with you
And it's still nothing that you can do
So come in my cave
And I’ll burn your heart away
Come in my cave
I’ll burn your heart away
Please close your ears
And try to look away
So you never hear a single word I say
And don’t ever come my way
Leave me alone
It's nothing serious
I’ll do it myself
It's got nothing to do with you
And there's still nothing that you could do
So come in my cave
And I’ll burn your heart away
Come in my cave
