Naval Hospital Guam Change of Command

AGANA HEIGHTS, GUAM (June 27, 2014)-- Just two short months after the ribbon cutting, the staff of the U.S. Naval Hospital Guam held a change of command ceremony in the hospital's atrium, June 27. During the ceremony Capt. Jeannie B. Comlish assumed command of the hospital from Capt. Jeffrey M. Plummer, marking the end of two years of command for Plummer. During his command Plummer oversaw the construction and historic transition of hospital staff to a new facility. The hospital became operational in the spring of 2014, with the first patient seen April 21. In his final speech to the staff Plummer said, "A young Corpsman once asked me what made me stay in the Navy past 20 years. At the time I gave him some kind of answer like, 'I'm still having fun' and I am, but thinking over it a little more I think I stay because I get interesting, challenging work, I get the opportunity for personal and professional growth and development, and even more than that, I get to wake up every day and get to come to work with some of the finest citizens our nation has ever known," then looking directly at his staff and with emotion in his voice he added, " That would be you, thank-you for your service." Comlish's comes to Guam from Naval Hospital Oak Harbor, where she served as Executive Officer. "Our mission and vision will remain the same; we will lead Navy Medicine in quality, patient-centered care as we continue to strengthen existing partnerships, we will develop new relationships within our community, our sister services, and Pacific nations. We will work jointly to be ready for any contingency and we will improve upon efficiencies. Naval Hospital Guam, I feel truly blessed, thank-you for the opportunity to serve you," said Comlish after relieving Plummer of his post. During the ceremony, Plummer was awarded the Legion of Merit presented to him by Rear Admiral Bruce L. Gillingham, Commander, Navy Medicine West. Plummer's next assignment will be as the U.S. Navy Bureau of Medicine and Surgery Liaison Officer to the Defense Health Agency.
