Joining Past and Present

The historic medical district at Schofield Barracks, Hawaii, dates back nearly 100 years, with the majority of the buildings completed as a 500-bed permanent station hospital in 1928. Because of its location remote from the port facilities at Pearl Harbor, and the opening of the larger Tripler General Hospital in 1944, Schofield’s medical district evolved over time from an entirely inpatient facility to being redesignated in 1972 as a U.S. Army Health Clinic.
