Although the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in mass fear, grief, and loss for the collective society, for the Military Health System, it also provided an unprecedented opportunity to test – and confirm – its readiness during an ongoing public health emergency. Personifying the Defense Health Agency’s mission to create a ready medical force to support a medically ready force, thousands of MHS personnel continue to withstand the test in myriad ways.
During National Hospital Week, the MHS recognizes each of the many individuals and teams across the MHS who ensured the readiness mission didn’t falter throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, relying on creativity, adaptability, and teamwork to provide unwavering service to millions of beneficiaries around the world.

Rowing NZ
Kaye Surgenor with her world record-breaking son Robbie Manson, who this year retired from elite rowing, while his mum became more and more involved in coaching the sport.
She’s raised the world’s fastest rower. Now Kaye Surgenor is diving deeper into coaching the sport – and taking her mothering skills with her. All the while Kaye Surgenor was raising her three sons, she wanted to return to the sport she loves. And when her youngest, Karl Manson, took up rowing, followed by his older brother, Robbie, that was the catalyst for Surgenor to take the plunge. She’d been a good rower herself, a winner at Maadi Cup secondary school level, and national champion with the Canterbury and Wairau clubs.
