C. Everett Koop, American admiral, pediatric surgeon and public health administrator, 13th United States Surgeon General (October 14, 1916 - February 25, 2013) was born Charles Everett Koop in Brooklyn, New York. C. Everett Koop was vice admiral in the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps, and served as Surgeon General under President Ronald Reagan from 1982 to 1989. According to the Associated Press, "Koop was the only surgeon general to become a household name." Koop was known for his work on tobacco use, AIDS, and abortion, and for his support of the rights of disabled children. Koop died on February 25, 2013, at the age of 96 at his home in Hanover, New Hampshire; according to a Koop aide, he had been ill for several months and had suffered kidney failure the previous week. No official determination of cause of death has yet been announced.

The Surgeon General Of The United States is the operational head of the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps (PHSCC) and thus the leading spokesperson on matters of public health in the federal government of the United States. The Surgeon General's office and staff are known as the Office of the Surgeon General (OSG) which is housed within the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Health. The U.S. Surgeon General is nominated by the president of the United States and confirmed by the Senate. The surgeon general must be appointed from individuals who (1) are members of the regular corps of the U.S. Public Health Service, and (2) have specialized training or significant experience in public health programs. The Surgeon General serves a four-year term of office and, depending on whether the current assistant secretary for health is a Public Health Service commissioned officer, is either the senior or next most senior uniformed officer of the commissioned corps, holding the rank of a vice admiral.
