I recently watched the US Surgeon General on TV, and I noticed he was wearing a military uniform and had the rank of Vice Admiral.
I thought the office of the surgeon general was "civilian" in nature, so why all the military related uniforms and titles?
As a side note, you would think if the Surgeon General had a military title, it would be "general" rather than "admiral" ... but what do I know?
Thanks.
