Washington Hospital was one of the hospitals arranging hotels for doctors and nurses and arranging for their transportation, via 4-wheel drive vehicles, to get back on forth. Not to mention, those roads (from the hotel to the hospital) were high priority and kept clear.
My brother in law made quite a bit of money being one of those shuttling back and forth.
Where did the money come from? Not really sure, but in the end, he was one of the ones that kept the hospital open for emergencies.
I wonder why folks who thought they’d have a prob getting in couldn’t bunk at the hospital? Surely the hospital have stuck some cots somewhere and folks could’ve slept in shifts. I’m just curious.
