8th EVAC Hosp

The 8th Evacuation Hospital was a distinguished U.S. Army medical unit activated during World War II. First organized in 1942, the hospital provided critical care to wounded soldiers across several European campaigns, including Normandy and the Rhineland. The unit was highly mobile, setting up field hospitals close to the front lines to deliver rapid surgical and medical treatment. After the war, the 8th Evacuation Hospital was inactivated, but its legacy of dedicated service lives on in military medical history.
