With the development of the Communicable Disease Center and the general expansion of Service personnel and activities following World War II, it became possible for the Service to render greater aid, not only in number of persons supplied but also in equipment and material furnished. Notable examples of this expanded service were the Texas City disaster, April 16, 1947, and the Northwest (Columbia River) flood in the spring of 1948.
