To be sure, Arctic expeditions are very cold (and can be quite dangerous).

U-boats, the feared German submarines, would harass Atlantic and Arctic convoys to stop them reaching port.

Cracked and fractured bones are routinely diagnosed by X-rays, so that doctors can find the best ways to treat even the smallest injuries.

Few doctors with the needful and appropriate medical degrees need to have Doctorates of any sort, let alone PHD's, to practice medicine.

General practice doctors in the US have to have a medical doctor degree or doctor of osteopathy degree.

Re: Alphabet Conversation
Has anyone met someone who carries the title of Doctor who is a Doctor of philosophy, not a Doctor of Medicine?
