4th ATH - 4th Air Transportable Hospital

"Have Hospital, Will Travel" was the unofficial motto of the 4th Air Transportable Hospital (ATH), a mobile medical unit that served during the Vietnam War.

The 4th ATH was a vital component of the United States military medical system, providing critical care to wounded soldiers in remote and often dangerous locations.

The 4th ATH was designed to be quickly deployable and capable of setting up a fully functional hospital facility in a short amount of time. The unit consisted of medical personnel, including doctors, nurses, and support staff, as well as medical equipment and supplies.

One of the key roles of the 4th ATH was to provide emergency medical care to wounded soldiers in the field. The unit would often set up near the front lines, allowing for rapid treatment and evacuation of casualties to more extensive medical facilities.

The 4th ATH also played a crucial role in providing medical care to civilians in Vietnam, including those affected by the war. The unit treated patients with a wide range of injuries and illnesses, from combat wounds to tropical diseases.
