Fifty years after opening, the San Diego Veterans Administration medical center will become the first Veterans Health Administration facility to be named after a female veteran of color.
Fifty years after it opened, the San Diego VA will become the first VA named after a female veteran of color. KPBS Military Reporter Steve Walsh has the story.
Gass is an emeritus professor of internal medicine at UCSD, who still teaches at the VA. The San Diego VA has always been both a research and a teaching hospital, built on land adjacent to the University of California San Diego. Construction on the $35.5 million, 811-bed hospital began in 1969. “But Vietnam veterans have come here,” Gass said. “Special programs were instituted as a result of them, the Agent Orange program, the notion that environmental hazards are problematic for veterans, and these things have all evolved out of the agitation and the political presence of the Vietnam era veterans.”
