Base Hospital #36 Part One

Base Hospital #36 was form in Detroit by the American Red Cross and staffed with faculty and students from the Detroit College of Medicine and Surgery (now Wayne State University Medical School). This is part one in which we explore the adventure that Base Hospital #36 had from Detroit, Michigan to Vittel, France and then back again. The Michigan State Fair Grounds was where Base Hospital #36 was trained during the late summer and fall of 1917.
