Find a soldier’s hospital record

Search 6.5 million U.S. Army hospital admission cards from 1942–1945 by service number.

How to search

  1. Enter the service number. Find it on discharge papers, dog tags or enlistment records. Dashes, spaces and leading zeros don’t matter, but keep an officer’s O- prefix.
  2. Read the timeline. Each admission card shows when and where the soldier was admitted, the diagnosis, the cause of injury and the outcome.
  3. Open the source detail. See every coded field exactly as NARA released it, next to its decoded meaning.

Don’t have a service number? Look the soldier up by name in the WWII Army enlistment records at wwii-enlistment.com — mainly enlisted men; officers are rarely listed there.
