Dear mr. Gullen:

On behalf of the Defense Personnel Support Center, I would like to express my appreciation for the cooperation your Company has demonstrated in recent procurements with this Center, Without companies of your caliber it would be impossible to adequately support the Military Medical Services with much needed equipment and supplies. The company personnel assigned to Government contracting are to be commended for their ability to respond to our requests in a timely manner and for the courtesies extended to us. I sincerely hope that our future endeavors will continue with the same air of cooperation and support that has been evident in our years of association. 

Sincerely,

Henry S. Rudolph

Captain, MSC USN

Director, Medical Material 

More about Captain Henry S.  Rudolph

CAPTAIN HENRY S. RUDOLPH MSC, U.S. NAVY (RET) Is inducted into the Defense Personnel Support Center (DPSC) Hall of Fame this twelfth day of August 1994 for his extraordinary leadership and support in DPSC’s Medical Materiel Directorate from 1965 to 1974. Captain Rudolph provided invaluable guidance and support during DPSC’s early years when medical logistics was added to the command’s mission. He established a fully equipped laboratory with facilities to test drugs, devices, and equipment. He also was the primary proponent of establishing an effective Navy medical logistics organization which became known as the Navy Medical Logistics Command. As a result of his exceptional knowledge of the medical logistics system, he became the first non-physician to be named as DPSC’s Director of Medical Materiel.
