Did you know that the first PA graduates consisted of four Navy corpsmen? In honor of #VeteransDay we're featuring Michael Bux, who is an emblem of that history. Back in Winter 2018, we sat down with Michael to talk about his service as an active-duty Navy Corpsman from 2004-2013, as well as the history of Navy Corpsman and their advanced medical training. This past weekend, it all came full circle, as he graduated from the SPAS Class of 2019! #SPASCommencement2019 #mbkuproud
Happy #VeteransDay to all those who have served ?? We are so grateful for your valiant deeds, service, and sacrifice every day.
It takes a village. Congratulations to the SPAS Class of 2019 and their supportive loved ones! #YouDidIt #MBKUProud #SPASCommencement2019
