History:
The hospital traces its roots to World War II when it was the Camp Gordon Station Hospital built in 1941. During 1941 it expanded to 1,600 beds to care for World War II casualties and their dependents. By the end of 1944, the station hospital provided medical services for nine dispensaries on post in addition to the dental clinics. World War II ended and times changed as did the installation's mission. The station hospital, one of the first functioning facilities, closed in August 1946. By the end of 1947 the installation was virtually a "ghost town".

The old hospital had 139 single story wooden buildings on 80 acres of land and nearly 3.5 miles of corridors connected the buildings.
