Imagine for a second that you are about to make a classic American turkey club sandwich. What would be some of the ingredients you would need for such? Fresh bread with a thin layer of mayo, medium-thick slices of turkey topped with some salty bacon, and fresh crisp tomato and lettuce to top it all off. While you may not realize it, you have Federal Veterinarians to thank as they are involved with ensuring that all of the ingredients (except the bread) in that turkey club are abundantly available, safe to eat and at a reasonable price[1]. The National Association of Federal Veterinarians (NAFV) represents those veterinarians and are focused on ensuring that federal veterinarians have the tools and support they need to continue to provide their critical service.
