While Lewis spent his time in St. Louis gathering information, Clark did most of the work of turning the disparate crew into an integrated corps. Clark served mainly as the expedition "doctor" and as co-captain in updating the journals. He often traded medical care for food and eventually established a reputation among the natives for his skills.
