I have been given a booklet on the 228th hospital built in 1943 at Haydon Park, nr Sherborne in the county of
Dorset UK.
It started operating from September 18th 1943
The author is a lady who served there as a civillian shorthand typist at the headquarters.
The CO was Col Charles B. Kendall and many other US servicemen are mentioned and pictured in the booklet.
The hospital closed in 1945 and the equipment and medical supplies were distributed to local civillian hospitals.
