Susan Youhn, member of the Board of Directors of the Friends of Point Lookout State Park shares stories of the staff at Hammond Hospital. The staff assembled at Point Lookout to deal with thousands of casualties was a microcosm of A-type personalities that vied for authority: doctors, nurses, and Daughters of Charity were all thrust together in one mix. Come to hear their stories and how they all got along . . . or did they?

This event is free with admission.
