We are proud to have the privilege to offer our products for the benefit of U.S. military and government personnel both here and abroad, says Brian Sanders, president of ICP Medical LLC. Each of our products meets or exceeds the clinical and technical requirements set by the Department of Defense for this initiative, he added.
