172nd Station Hospital Library

Comments: I'm working in the archives at Central Washington University and have just received a book called the Seven Story Mountain by Thomas Merton from the Thorp (Washington) Historical Society with a stamp in the back that says "Property of U.S. Army, Hospital Library, 172nd Station Hospital, A.P.O. 547." It looks like the book was checked out heavily from 1950 to 1952. It also looks like the book was fire damaged. I'm interested in learning more about the hospital and if anyone had any experiences with the library there.

Hospital In Sendai, Japan

Comments: I was stationed in Camp Sendai, Camp Schimmelpfennig (Schimm) from 1954 - 1956. While at Camp Sendai I was taken to the Army hospital downtown for a kidney stone attack. I spent several days there. The building itself was the Japanese Postal (Employees) Insurance Building and I have photos of it then. The US Army took over the building and it was used as a headquarters building and a hospital until it was returned to the original owners. It is still standing and has been completely remodeled. I have a number of photos of it before and after as well as photos of people stationed there. They are on my website about Sendai. Go to www.sendai-shi.com to see them. Will also display your photos with your name if you are interested. Just follow the submission guidelines on my website.
