    The Marine Corps Research Center maintains a large list of military publication links, many of which occasionally publish medically related articles.
    You can search the library catalogs of the schools associated with the Military Education Coordinating Council (MECC) at the Military Education Research Library Network (MERLN) website for military medicine holdings.
    An alternate way of searching library catalogs is to use telnet. You can use telnet to search both the Marine Corps Research Center's Marine University Library (login and password are both "chui") and the Army War College's Carlisle Barracks Total Library (login and password are both "cats").
