HR 1154 RDS 
SECTION 1. FINDINGS. 
The Congress makes the following findings: 
(1) Michael Ellis DeBakey, M.D. was born on 
September 7, 1908 in Lake Charles, Louisiana, to 
Shaker and Raheeja DeBakey. 
(2) Dr. DeBakey, at the age of 23 and still a 
medical student, reported a major invention, a roller 
pump for blood transfusions, which later became a 
major component of the heart-lung machine used in 
the first successful open-heart operation. 
(3) Even though Dr. DeBakey had already 
achieved a national reputation as an authority on 
vascular disease and had a promising career as a 
surgeon and teacher, he volunteered for military 
service during World War II, joining the Surgeon 
General’s staff and rising to the rank of Colonel and 
Chief of the Surgical Consultants Division. 
(4) As a result of this first-hand knowledge of 
military service, Dr. DeBakey made numerous rec-
ommendations for the proper staged management of 
war wounds, which led to the development of mobile 
army surgical hospitals or MASH units and earned 
Dr. DeBakey the Legion of Merit in 1945. 
(5) After the war, Dr. DeBakey proposed the 
systematic medical follow-up of veterans and rec-
ommended the creation of specialized medical cen-
