Navy, Army, Air Force link resources with Puget Sound health care network

First Fort Lewis and McChord Air Field linked arms to make Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Now the Navy is in on the partnership, too.

A newly created Puget Sound military health care network consolidates medical services for the three branches of the Armed Forces, from Tacoma to Oak Harbor.

It aims to streamline oversight of military hospitals while promoting best practices among the service branches, its commander, Brig. Gen. John Cho, told the Tacoma-Pierce Chamber of Commerce military affairs committee Wednesday.

“You take the best of the services and you move forward,” he said.
