29th Evacuation Hospital

The 29th Evacuation Hospital was a vital U.S. Army medical unit activated during World War II. Organized in 1942, the hospital deployed to the European Theater, where it provided critical medical support following the D-Day landings in Normandy, France. The unit treated thousands of wounded soldiers under challenging conditions, often operating close to the front lines as Allied forces advanced through Europe. After the war, the 29th Evacuation Hospital continued to serve in various capacities, maintaining its legacy of dedicated medical care in times of conflict.
