EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Oliver General Hospital in Augusta, Georgia, during the year 1943. Previously known as The Forrest Hills-Ricker Hotel prior to 1940, this iconic building was transformed into a vital medical facility for wounded soldiers during World War II. The government's takeover of the hotel exemplifies their commitment to providing care and support to those who bravely fought on behalf of their country. Today, this historic site has been repurposed and is now home to the Forest Hills Golf Club. The transformation from a hospital to a golf club symbolizes the resilience and adaptability of places that have witnessed significant moments in history. The image captures the grandeur of the hospital's exterior with its impressive facade against a backdrop of lush green grounds. Its vibrant colors bring life to an era marked by war but also demonstrate hope for brighter days ahead. Preserved through time on a postcard produced by Curt Teich & Co. , this photograph serves as a poignant reminder of Augusta's contribution during World War II. It encapsulates not only architectural beauty but also represents an important chapter in American history. As we reflect upon this image, it is essential to acknowledge and honor all those who served at Oliver General Hospital while appreciating how far we have come since then.
