Community Nursing Services was honored to recognize Leonard (Len) J. Swinyer through the CNS Honor Salute Program. A Lt. Commander in the Navy during the Vietnam War, Len was stationed at the Marine Hospital in Quantico, Va. He was in charge of hospital laboratories, as well as FBI forensic cases on the base. Len was ROTC for 7 years and active duty for 2.5 years, and his background made him board eligible in internal medicine and pathology and board certified in dermatology and dermatopathology.
Outside of his naval service, Len was also an investigator for his family’s research company, the Dermatology Research Center. The center did clinical studies for FDA approval of new drugs for dermatology.
The CNS Honor Salute Program is a way to give one final tribute of appreciation to hospice patients who bravely served our country. The program is made possible thanks to the generous support of donors who volunteer their time or contribute monetary support. You can help support the Honor Salute Program by donating.
