3rd HU Field Hospital Leghorn, Italy

The 3rd Hospital Unit (HU) Field Hospital was a U.S. Army medical facility stationed at Leghorn (now Livorno), Italy, during the post-World War II era. Established as part of the American military presence in Italy, the unit provided medical support to U.S. forces and their dependents in the region. The hospital played a crucial role in treating service members during the early years of the Cold War, offering a range of medical and surgical services. Its presence contributed significantly to the health and readiness of U.S. military personnel stationed in southern Europe until its eventual deactivation.
