Naval Hospital Jacksonville

Naval Hospital Jacksonville was commissioned in 1941 in response to the increased medical needs of the U.S. Navy during World War II. Located at Naval Air Station Jacksonville, Florida, it has served as a critical healthcare facility for sailors, Marines, and their families throughout numerous conflicts, including the Korean War, Vietnam War, and operations in the Middle East. Over the decades, the hospital has expanded its services and facilities, becoming a leading center for military medicine and training. Today, Naval Hospital Jacksonville remains dedicated to providing high-quality medical care and readiness support to the Navy and the broader military community.
