Royal Medical Corps (Malaysia)

The history of the RMC begins as early as the history of the armed forces' struggle to defend national sovereignty after the First World War. The threat of confrontation and involvement in the War Against Insurgency contributed to the establishment of the General Service Corps (Medicine) in 1960. The history of the Army Health Service (PKAT) was engraved when the Medical and Dental Corps (KUG) was officially established on May 11, 1967. Evolution continued to grow with the change of designation to the Armed Forces Health Corps (KKAT) on 10 August 1988. The awarding of the Royal Title by His Majesty the Yang DiPertuan Agong on 7 June 1997 was a national recognition of the service and sacrifice of Corps members to the nation and the country. The motto of the Royal Health Corps is Service First. ==Mission==
