Twenty-fifth General Hospital:
Courage and Skill in World War II
In 1941, the U.S. Army invited the University of Cincinnati to
organize the 25th General Hospital as a major medical facility in the European
war theater. Over 600 physicians, nurses & enlisted men served with
distinction. An exhibit highlights their movements, personal narratives &
medical contributions, accompanied by a collection of photographs, documents & videos.
