The evacuation hospital is the medical unit capable of providing all types of definitive medical and surgical care, positioned furthest forward toward the front.

From their entry into the war in 1941, the United States devoted considerable energy and committed a colossal budget to ensuring that soldiers received the best possible care and, above all, that their chances of survival after a combat wound or illness were significantly improved.

The field hospital is a key instrument of this medical service mission. This comprehensive work describes its establishment near the battlefield and the operation of its departments, with personnel and equipment presented in detail.

This book, illustrated with a great many period documents, is dedicated to all the men and women who worked tirelessly within these Evacuation Hospitals during the Second World War.
