NAVAL HOSPITAL, Millington, TN

Naval Hospital Millington, located in Millington, Tennessee, was established during World War II to provide medical care and support for the rapidly expanding Naval Air Station Millington. The hospital played a crucial role in treating service members, training medical personnel, and supporting Navy operations throughout the war and the subsequent decades. As military needs evolved, the hospital continued to serve active-duty personnel, dependents, and retirees in the region. Its mission was eventually absorbed by other Navy medical facilities as part of broader military realignments, but its legacy of service endures in Navy medicine history.
