Here is where I have firsthand experience. Coast Guard Medical officers are part of the United States Public Health Service Commissioned Corp. These are also the people that work at the Center for Disease Control (CDC). The United States Surgeon General is USPS. USPS officers are also assigned to the Indian Health Service. I was a USPS recruiter in a former life.
