Kenner Army Hospital

Kenner Army Hospital, located at Fort Lee, Virginia, was established in 1941 as the United States prepared for World War II. Initially constructed as a temporary medical facility, it rapidly expanded during the war to care for wounded soldiers returning from overseas. The hospital continued its mission through the Korean and Vietnam Wars, providing medical support to military personnel and their families. In 2011, Kenner Army Hospital was re-designated as Kenner Army Health Clinic, transitioning from a full-service hospital to an outpatient clinic as part of Army medical restructuring efforts.
