Hospital Trains 57th Med Bn Newspaper articles US Army Hospital Trains 1946 (Source: Mike Keefe) Click here for a very nice article on WW2 Hospital Trains in the ETO (WW2 US Medical Research Centre). Several of the US Army hospital trains that served during WW2 in the European Theater remained in Germany as part of the Army of Occupation. Hosp Train, 1946 1953 (Source: STARS & STRIPES, March 6, 1953) 325th Hospital Train In early March 1953, the 325th Hosp Train, a seven-car unit attached to the 57th Med Bn and stationed at Landstuhl, completed its first run to evacuate patients from the Com Z to the 320th Gen Hosp at Landstuhl. The train is made up of five ward cars (these are new, specifically designed sleeping cars), a baggage car and a diner and is equipped to carry a maximum of 336 litter patients or 448 ambulatory pastients. The crew consists of 36 military and civilian (German and French) personnel, including a train commander (a 2nd Lt.), a chief nurse (a Capt) and eight cooks. On its route between Landstuhl, Germany and Bordeaux, France, and back, the 325th Hosp Train stops at scheduled points in the Com Z to pick up or drop off patients. The train is scheduled to make this trip approximately every two weeks. On its first run, the evacuation train picked up patients at Bordeaux, La Rochelle, Paris and Fontainebleau, France. After arriving back in Landstuhl, the patients were picked up by ambulances and transported to the 320th GH where they would undergo further examinations and observation. From there they might be evacuated by air to the US or sent to other Army hospitals in Europe. Another train, the 37th Hosp Train, is a two-car Diesel train that evacuates every Thursday patients from the 320th GH to the 97th GH in Frankfurt. Every Tuesday, this train makes a run to Verdun, France.

Train CO of the 6-car train was Lt Col Gerard A. Bertrandt. Maximum capacity of the six-car train is 252 litter patients or 336 ambulatory patients or a combination of the two. The 80th Hosp Train arrived in Com Z in Dec of last year to replace an older hosp train. The capacity of the cars on the new train (13 triple-tiered bunks) is greater than that of the older cars (8 double-tiered bunks). Each of the new cars has its own heating and utilities equipment, whereas the older train had to carry an extra utility car. Five of the train's six cars contain modern pharmaceutical and kitchen equipment, the sixth car is designed to handle neuropsychiatric patients. Present plans call for the train to make two runs each month to La Rochelle or wherever it is needed.

I was assigned to the 34th Hospital Train from January 1954 to February 1955. The 34th Hospital Train was part of the 57th Medical Battalion and we were stationed at the McNair Barracks in Hoechst, Germany. Our mission was to transport patients from Munich back to Frankfurt. We started out on a Monday morning and stopped at all the stations where we would pick up patients on our way back from Munich. We would stay in Munich on Monday night and then start by loading up patients at Munich on Tuesday morning and make our way back to Frankfurt. We operated a two car diesel -- one car was for stretchers and the other car was for ambulatory patients and our crew. We also had a kitchen where our cook prepared meals for our patients while they were onboard. The trains were kept about a mile from our barracks at McNair Kaserne in Hoechst.They were kept on a siding there.This was the two car diesel. The picture you had posted of the train is exactly what our train looked like. I have been in touch with a few of the men when I wrote an ad that was placed in the American Legion magazine. At first they responded then they gradually dropped off. I still talk to one man from Tennessee every so often, but after 50 years what can we actually talk about? (Source: STATION LIST, Dec 13 1954) The 329th Hosp Train completed its first run (a one-car diesel engine) to Munich in Dec 1954. The 329th is responsible for medical evacuation of patients for primary hospitalization and consultation services in the Southern Area Command area. The hospital train is designed to augment ambulance runs from Straubing Sub-Area dispensaries to the Army hospital in Munich and from the Hohenfels Sub- Area dispensary to the Army hospital at Nuernberg. The train is scheduled to depart from Fuerth on Thursdays at 8 am and arrive in Munich at 1:52 pm. For the return trip (patients released from the Army hospital on their way back to their units), the train departs from Munich on Fridays at 3:05 pm each week. The 329th is commanded by Maj Joseph C. Ziesenheim. The hospital train is staffed by a nurse and six enlisted technicians. The train has a capacity of 12 litter and 6 amubulatory patients. It has the facilities to serve a hot meal during the trip. Dependent patients who go to Munich for consultation are billeted at the Columbia and Excelsior Hotels.

The 57th Med Bn, commanded by Maj. B.A. Petrini, operates five such trains under the administration of the USAREUR Chief Surgeon, Maj Gen Alvin L. Gorby. On a roundtrip basis, these rolling dispensaries transport about 400 patients a month. The trains (one steam and four diesel) run between Nürnberg, Munich, Neubrücke, Münchweiler and Verdun. Main junction is Landstuhl, where the Army's 2d Gen Hosp is located, the largest outside the U.S. The steam train includes six ward cars, a diner and a coach for staff personnel. The diesels are two-car jobs containing galleys and pharmacies and are equipped to handle any kind of patient, from those requiring an incubator to an iron lung. The 57th is soon hoping to get new diesels which will cost $250,000 apiece and will be capable of traveling 100 mph, although except for extreme emergencies, the amublance trains travel slower than ordinary passenger or freight rail service. The longest run, from Munich to Neubrücke, takes 11 hours. The present diesels carry medical crews consisting of 15 EM, one nurse and an officer acting as train commander. The trains are operated by German personnel and are rented from the German Federal railroads. Maintenance is provided under contract. These ambulance units, designed primarily for servicemen, also on occasion handle dependents and American tourists requiring immediate attention. The organization's safety record is excellent, officials said. The 57th Med Bn is the only one of its kind in Europe operating not only ambulance trains, but the more common four-wheel variety, plus helicopters. (Source: Email from Jim Gibson, 34th Hospital Train, Frankfurt-Hoechst, later Neubrücke) I was with the 34th Hospital Train from March 1955 to April 1956. The 2-Car Diesel hospital train used by the 34th was made in Germany. And by the way, a General in Heidelberg had a 2-Car Diesel just like ours without the Red Cross on top. While stationed in Hoechst, the 34th operated a weekly hospital train that left Hoechst Monday morning for a trip to Munich, Germany (I believe we went through Stuttgart on the way down and back).

  • The Evolution of Hospitals from Antiquity to the Renaissance
    Acta Theologica Supplementum 7 2005 THE EVOLUTION OF HOSPITALS FROM ANTIQUITY TO THE RENAISSANCE ABSTRACT There is some evidence that a kind of hospital already existed towards the end of the 2nd millennium BC in ancient Mesopotamia. In India the monastic system created by the Buddhist religion led to institutionalised health care facilities as early as the 5th century BC, and with the spread of Buddhism to the east, nursing facilities, the nature and function of which are not known to us, also appeared in Sri Lanka, China and South East Asia. One would expect to find the origin of the hospital in the modern sense of the word in Greece, the birthplace of rational medicine in the 4th century BC, but the Hippocratic doctors paid house-calls, and the temples of Asclepius were vi- sited for incubation sleep and magico-religious treatment. In Roman times the military and slave hospitals were built for a specialised group and not for the public, and were therefore not precursors of the modern hospital. It is to the Christians that one must turn for the origin of the modern hospital. Hospices, originally called xenodochia, ini- tially built to shelter pilgrims and messengers between various bishops, were under Christian control developed into hospitals in the modern sense of the word. In Rome itself, the first hospital was built in the 4th century AD by a wealthy penitent widow, Fabiola. In the early Middle Ages (6th to 10th century), under the influence of the Be- nedictine Order, an infirmary became an established part of every monastery.

Executive Summary In 2007, the Georgia Legislature through Senate Bill 60 established the Georgia Trauma Care Network Commission, also known as the Georgia Trauma Commission (GTC). The GTC has the responsibility to establish, maintain and administer a trauma center network and to coordinate the best use of existing trauma facilities in Georgia. 1 Following a Georgia trauma system review by the American College of Surgeons’ Trauma System Consultation Program in January 2009, the GTC identified the need for both a comprehensive state trauma system plan and for a statewide trauma communications system. In 2009, the GTC developed the "Regional Trauma System Planning Framework" and a plan to test that framework through a pilot project ("Pilot Project for Georgia Trauma System Regionalization, White Paper"). The pilot project tested the framework as a regional trauma plan development guide and was the opportunity for the GTC to operationalize the Statewide Trauma Communications Center. In 2011, the pilot project was funded and was implemented in three of the state's 10 EMS regions (Regions V, VI and IX).

    xxxxxxxxxx Canadian Military Hospitals at Sea 1914-1919 Jonathan C Johnson, OTB S there was an ocean between Canada and the fighting during WWI, the movement of casualties needing lengthy treatment required special arrangements. Many of the Acasualties returning home, especially in 1915 and 1916, came back to Canada on relatively empty troop ships (ex-passenger ships) and were accompanied by a small medical team. The more serious casualties came home on either hospital ships or ambulance transports, most of which were equipped as floating convalescent hospitals. Hospital ships and ambulance transports generally were identically equipped. The former were commissioned naval auxiliaries painted white with green stripe and large red crosses and protected by the Geneva Convention (Figure 1). The latter were normal naval auxiliaries painted troop ship colours that sailed in convoy and were not protected by the Geneva Figure 1. Colour postcard of HMHS LETITIA with the correct Convention. Like most military colour scheme for a commissioned hospital ship under the Geneva Convention. units each ship had an ‘Orderly Room’ where mail could be posted and, if lucky, picked up upon arrival at port. Military service personnel overseas could post mail unpaid. For much of the war, the Canada Post Office added postage upon arrival in Canada so postage due would not be applied. Canada had six hospital ships and ambulance transports during WWI. Of this number, two were lost while in service. A return trip from Liverpool to Canada and back took one month.
