- Your pharmacy needs you! The 673d Medical Group Pharmacy seeks volunteers to help provide outstanding customer service to our beneficiaries. Volunteers are critical team members of pharmacies across the Air Force. As a pharmacy volunteer, you can help perform many valuable tasks, such as bagging, shelving, or handing out medication to our retired and active duty Soldiers and Airmen, and their families. For many people that receive care at the 673d Medical Group, the pharmacy is the last stop. As a volunteer, you can help make their visit to the pharmacy a great one! If you are interested, please contact Captain Christina McQuaide in the pharmacy at (907) 580-6807. You can also email Captain McQuaide at christina.mcquaide@elmendorf.af.mil. All 673d Medical Group volunteers are sponsored by the American Red Cross. Thank you!
