36th Evac Hospital

The 36th Evacuation Hospital was a distinguished U.S. Army medical unit activated during World War II. Initially organized in 1941, the unit deployed to the European Theater, providing critical medical support during major campaigns such as the Normandy invasion and the Battle of the Bulge. The hospital followed advancing Allied forces through France, Belgium, and into Germany, treating thousands of wounded soldiers. After the war, the 36th Evacuation Hospital was inactivated, but its legacy of service and lifesaving care remains a notable part of U.S. Army medical history.
