Big food wagons make the rounds of the 121st's wards as SFC John H. Jackman (right), Hq. Svc. Co., 802nd Eng. Bn., receives his supper from PFC Kermit W. Tesch, wardman. A Korean mess attendant (left) assists. Bed-ridden patients are fed in this manner. The 121st Evacuation Hospital - commanded by Arnold L. Ahnfeldt - has been the doorway to treatment and recovery for U.S. servicemen and Republic of Korea military personnel, Army and non-Army U.S. civilians and Korean nationals. The hospital can take care of about 400 patients at a time and has morale facilities, such as a post exchange, a barber, movie theater and chapel for them.
