A unique union was formed on March 13, 2004 in Upstate South Carolina – that of military services and chiropractic health services. For the first time in Sherman College’s history, chiropractic interns held a spinal screening for military personnel at the Annual Naval and Marine Corps Reserve Center’s Health Fair at the Donaldson Center in Greenville.

All military personnel were given the opportunity to listen to health talks from Sherman interns, as well as receive free spinal screenings. Participants ranged from first year Sailors to Lieutenant Commander Eythell, Commanding Officer of the Reserve Center.

The health fair was a huge success, and I would like to think Sherman’s presence had a lot to do with it. As Commander Flanagan (coordinator of the fair) commented, Sherman was the “hit of the day!” Now why would we think otherwise?
