    Hospitals and Clinics 81 Chapter Three Hospitals and Clinics INTRODUCT I ON The attack on the Pentagon killed 125 Department of Defense (DoD) personnel outright, including 33 Navy and 22 Army active-duty deaths. Seventy civilians, including nine contractors, also lost their lives. No construction workers were among those killed because they were all working in another area at the time of the crash. Of the many injured survivors who made it out of the building, 125 sought medical care at area hospitals and clinics on 9/11. Approximately 64 were treated and released, and about 61 had physical injuries serious enough to be ad- mitted to medical facilities. Dozens more sought treatment for minor injuries dur- ing the remainder of the week. Military and civilian hospitals treated and admitted both military and civilian casualties. By 15 September, only 20 patients remained in local hospitals. (See the discussion of discrepancies in official casualty counts in Chapter 1.)1(p314),2(pB-15),3–8 Immediately after American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon, area hospitals with previous agreements to work together in a crisis contacted one another. Walter Reed Army Medical Center (WRAMC) communicated with military and civilian support hospitals in Northern Virginia; Washing- ton, DC; and Maryland. WRAMC’s emergency room staff had been meeting monthly with emergency personnel from hospitals in the DC Hospital Asso- ciation, and communications had been tested every day regarding bed avail- ability and other contingency concerns.

    Bearing His Full Name and Practicing Medicine in Chicago

    MEMORIAL Xxi rectitude and dignity. Among the children who survive him is a son bearing his full name and practicing medicine in Chicago. GENERAL WILLIAM C. GORGAS. William C. Gorgas was born in Alabama on October 3rd, 1854. He was the son af General Josiah Gorgas, the Chief of Ordnance of the Southern Confederacy and after the Civil War the President of the University of the South. Gorgas was graduated from the Uni- versity of the South with the degree of A.B. in 1875 and from the Bellevue Hospital Medical College in 1879. He entered the Medical Department of the Army on June 16th, 1880, as first lieutenant, became captain in 1885 and major in 1898. In early life Gorgas had had yellow fever. In those days yellow fever was rightly dreaded. As Gorgas was the only immune among the officers of the Medical Department with the exception of Surgeon-General Stern- berg he was naturally the first one to be thought of for duty that involved exposure to that disease. Having accompanied the expedi- tion against Santiago, he was soon appointed Chief Sanitary Officer of Havana, which office he held from 1898 to 1902. Walter Reed, at that time a major in the Medical Department, was first sent by General Sternberg to Cuba to study yellow fever in 1900 and in June of that year was appointed president of the board of which Carroll, Agramonte and Lazar were the other mem- bers. Gorgas from his position naturally cooperated with the board (Reed acknowledges valuable suggestions from him), but his other duties forbade active participation in the researches which resulted in the memorable discovery of the mode of infection in yellow fever and of the proper means of exterminating that disease.
