Reagan transfer of power
On July 12, 1985, President Ronald Reagan underwent a colonoscopy procedure, during which a pre-cancerous tumor known as a villous adenoma was discovered. The following day, July 13, 1985, Reagan underwent surgery to remove the tumor, leading to the first invocation of Section 3 (the "Acting President" provisions) of the 25th amendment.
