... Alberts: On behalf of the Department of the Army, our military and civilian personnel, and our families and neighbors, I am pleased to extend our well-deserved congratulations and thanks to the National Research Council's Committee on Toxicology on the occasion of its fiftieth anniversary of scientific service to the nation. Since 19477 the 723 reports by the Committee have yielded countless benefits to the Department of Defense, other government agencies, and the American people by providing authoritative information and independent scientific guidance for our efforts to protect the health of uniformed personnel, civilian workers, and the general public from toxicological exposures.
