Some of this is a bit out of my area, but I'll talk about two general things.
First is the challenge of ensuring that we provide the best possible medical care for our soldiers. Second is ensuring that we have enough commissions ourselves as well. With respect to the number of commissions, we have put considerable effort into attracting doctors to the military and retaining them in the military.
For about 12 years we've genuinely had a problem with being short on doctors. We have employed one lieutenant-colonel physician full time in attraction and recruiting, and we have hired two reservist recruiting officers to help specifically with recruiting doctors. As a result, we have 150 captain and major doctors in the military. For a long time that number was below 100, which was quite a significant deficit. As of 2006, we brought that number up to 115, and right now we're at 126. We're on track to have it right up to 150 by about April 2009, which is where we're supposed to be.
