INFORMATION: The
hospital was equipped with an operating theatre, kitchen, cinema, staff quarters
and wards. It
was only used for three months when all the wards were occupied by German
Soldiers wounded in the D-Day Normandy battles. They were brought
to the islands mainly by ship from Cherbourg. After
a few weeks underground they were not really healing well and most were as
white as a sheet having seen no sunlight in all that time. After the Liberation
of most of France and with no signs of a the Channel
Islands being liberated, the casualties were transferred to above
ground accommodation.
