The new hospital was constructed in 1920/21, and named William Beaumont General Hospital. It was located northwest of Fort Bliss. Army Capt. (Dr.) William Beaumont did research on gastric juice and the physiology of digestion between 1820 and 1850. The hospital has expanded considerably since the 1940s and is now called the William Beaumont Army Medical Center.
