The hospital dedicated Nov. Z, by
Marshal Foch, is unique in that it Is
the only hospital in the country oper-
ated by ex-service men for the benefit
of ey-service men.
Each doctor, nurse and employe at
the institution will have seen service

The hospital, converted from the
former community house at Camp
Custer, where thousands of Michigan
and Wisconsin men were trained dur
ing the war period, was turned over
to the legion by the state of Michigan
several months ago.
An extensive program for care oil
