Invisible Excellence- Unit K/Mobile 1 WWI Operations in France

Accidentally Historic

This episode continues the story of Mobile Hospital No, 1, also known as Unit K or the Council Bluffs Unit in World War I. In this episode writer/researcher Brian Mainwaring recounts events such as an early attempt to break up Unit K, its training and observation period with the British military, the full integration of Unit K’s roster into Mobile No. 1, preparation of the hospital’s personnel and inventory for its first full set-up and deployment there in mid-1918, and an incident in which a quartet of the officers discovered the rest of the group had been transferred ahead without them.
