Biographical notes:
Base Hospital No. 19 began with 11 Rochester area physicians in 1916 forming a unit of the Medical Corps Reserve. By 1917, when the unit was mobilized, 134 doctors, nurses and enlisted men from the Rochester vicinity were ready. The unit reached Vichy, France, in June of 1918, and established Base Hospital No. 19, a 2,000 bed facility. The Hospital served over 11,000 patients during the 6 months it operated. Base Hospital No. 19 was closed in February of 1919, and its members discharged in early May.
