As the Military Society of the ACS, the Excelsior Surgical Society (ESS) provides a voice and home for all military surgeons within the College. With military and associated surgeons regularly contributing research and perspectives germane to this specialized field, the ACS has created an ESS article collection for the Journal of the American College of Surgeons (JACS).

The articles in this collection highlight the intersection of military surgical practice and broader surgical innovation. Browse its adapted Excelsior Surgical Society/Edward D. Churchill Lecture Named Lectures, ACS Presidential Addresses, Scudder Orations, and research articles covering topics key to military surgery, included leadership, military-civilian partnerships to maintain readiness, military surgery history, and more.

Scroll down to the CME Articles section for opportunities to earn AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ related to this collection. Access to JACS is a benefit of ACS membership.
