Donna do you remember a woman named Bernice Barnet(Dobson) who gave birth and died afterwards in 1968? I'm looking for anyone who may have known her.

Please Help. I am in search of anyone who may have known Allen or Bernice Dobson (Barnett) in 1967-68 at St Albans Naval Hospital.

My father was a Naval Officer / Patient there during the summer or fall of 1958 -- met with a rather tragic ending -- but would love to know if anyone remembers him, thanks: William E. Taylor

The St. Albans Naval Hospital in Queens is standing, but not strong enough. They want to knock it down for condos. They want to bring in 6000 residence in to a already crowded community. In this day no one cares about the history of this hospital. So very sad. The community is fighting to stop it, but money speaks louder.

I was stationed there in 1973-1974 and worked in orthopedics floor as a hospital corpsman. Amazing care was given there. I saw my first use of sterile maggots used there to clean up gas gang green on those that returned from viet nam.

I was at the Naval Hospital Pensacola during the early to mid 60s and knew an anesthesiologist named Jerome (Jerry) Modell who came from St. Albans.

sure do remember it. trained as an operating room technician there, 1965-66, and stayed on after school as a tech, until deployed to USS SANCTUARY AH 17 and vietnam, wherein i was of course an operating room technician.
it was center for thoracic surgery for navy on east coast, so we did lots of lung operations, open heart surgery. was a very well run, good hospital.

I was sent there for a cyst removal around 1958 a Marine Doc. removed it and wanted to keep me for training coremen .I guess things were slow as I was surrounded while he did his thing.Had to do some fast talking to leave as I had a week end liberty.
