J. Willis Hurst (1920-2011), short-term Navy cardiologist

The NY Times has an obituary for Dr. J. Willis Hurst, who briefly served as a Navy doctor:

 

"His career was interrupted when he was drafted into the Navy in 1954 and assigned to Bethesda Naval Hospital, where he became chief of cardiology before returning to Emory in 1955."
 
Oddly enough, Hurst had been drafted into the Army during World War II.
