Admission, Disposition, and Evacuation Lists, 1943-1945.

The registrar's mission was to prepare medical records and necessary statistics in conformity with existing regulations and P.B.S. circulars (Unit history, July 1944, p. 87. Box 3, Folder 1). The monthly statistics in the registrar’s report of unit histories came from these logs of the comings and goings of patients, 1943-1945. Admission lists identify incoming patients and their location within the hospital. Disposition lists trace where the patients went after leaving the hospital: their return to unit, first replacement depot, or transfer to other hospitals. Evacuation lists chronicle the evacuation of patients to other hospitals after being stabilized. Evacuation lists start in November 1944, the first full month of operation in the European Theater of Operations. The registrar complains in the November 1944 unit history that "this installation has been functioning as an evacuation hospital and not in the capacity for which it was intended (p. 137A, (Box 3, Folder 10)." Properly or not, the evacuation lists record the massive air evacuations to the United States begun in July 1944 (Unit history, July 1944, p. 88).
