27th Evacuation Hospital, 1942-1945

An Online Exhibit

Evacuation hospital, Baccarat France (1944)

Baccarat France (1944)

This building was a former military barracks. It was converted to an evacuation hospital. The G.I. stove is used to make the operating room comfortable as no other heat was available. Surgeons usually operated in tents, although the 27th Evac used abandoned buildings, military barracks, classrooms and hospitals when they were available.
