343rd general hospital

The 343rd General Hospital was a unit of the United States Army activated during World War II to provide medical care for wounded and ill service members. Constituted in 1942, the hospital served in the European Theater of Operations, supporting Allied forces following the D-Day landings and throughout the campaigns in France and Germany. The unit was responsible for treating thousands of casualties, performing surgeries, and facilitating the recovery and evacuation of patients. After the war, the 343rd General Hospital was inactivated, but its legacy continued through its dedicated service and contributions to military medicine during a critical period in history.
