Col. Edwin Tignor Dies;
Veteran of Dental Corps

Retired Col. Edwin P. Tignor
30, one Of the 30 original mem.
bers Of the United States Arm,
Dental Corps, died Friday a
Walter Reed hospital after {
short illness.
Col. Tignor was a student al
the University of Maryland ir
1901 when Congress authorized
hiring civilians to provide
dental service to the military.
At a luncheon in 1851 observ-
ing the 50th anniversary of the
Dental Corps, Col. Tignor re-
called that before the dentists
were hired, soldiers were with
out any dental care-linless q
toothache became intolerable,
Then an Army surgeon ex-
tracted the offending tooth.
THE idea for a dental service
grew out Of the Spanish Amer
ican War" the retired colonel
told the luncheon guests. "Sev-
eral dentists volunteered as line
officers but took their instru-
ments along. They treated their
men, and the Army thought
regularly assigned dentis ts
would be a good idea.
Met Restrictions
However" he said. "Con-
gress and the Surgeon General
decided to hire us as civilians
first to see how 1t would work
out"
Col. Tignor, who lived on the
farm where he was born in
Wicomico Church. Va, was
paid $3.50 a month when he
began his service. But we
couldn't be promoted" he
pointed out.
His first assignment was to
Fort Riley, Kans., where his
responsibility included treating
men at that post and those at
a dozen other smaller posts
covering six States. He would
spend time at each post, taking
care of the most pressing cases.
There was a lot of work to
catch up on in those DAYS." he
told his friends.
