Hospital ship
A hospital ship is a ship designated for primary function as a floating medical treatment facility or hospital. Most are operated by the military forces (mostly navies) of various countries, as they are intended to be used in or near war zones.
Although attacking a hospital ship is a war crime, belligerent navies have the right to board such ships for inspections.
History
Early examples
Hospital ships possibly existed in ancient times. The Athenian Navy had a ship named Therapia, and the Roman Navy had a ship named Aesculapius, their names indicating that they may have been hospital ships.
It was only during the 17th century that it became customary for naval squadrons to be accompanied by special vessels with the job of taking in the wounded after each engagement. The first known such vessel was the HMS Goodwill, commissioned in 1608 for the Royal Navy. Hospital ships were also used for the treatment of wounded soldiers fighting on land. An early example of this was during an English operation to evacuate English Tangier in 1683. An account of this evacuation was written by Samuel Pepys, an eyewitness. One of the main concerns was the evacuation of sick soldiers "and the many families and their effects to be brought off". The hospital ship Unity and Welcome sailed for England on 18 October 1683 with 114 invalid soldiers and 104 women and children, arriving at The Downs on 14 December 1683.

The US Navy Largest Hospital ship Ever Built - USNS Mercy & USNS Comfort
The United States Navy has a long history of military strength. Considering its numerous aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines, it is by far the world's largest and potentially most capable Navy. But, beyond those, and beyond all the cruisers and patrol boats and other combat ships, there are two more that lurk in the shadows of the 490 ship fleets, they are: the USNS Mercy and the USNS Comfort.

HMAS Vampire
This service honours HMAS Vampire and all those who served on her. An aged destroyer in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), HMAS Vampire spent the first half of the Second World War in the Mediterranean. As part of the 'Scrap Iron Flotilla', she primarily took part in escort and patrol duties. In May 1941 she was assigned to the 'Tobruk Ferry Service', providing supplies and reinforcements to the besieged town. Engine problems saw her removed from service and sent to Singapore for repairs. After Japan entered the war, HMAS Vampire remained in the Pacific as part of Force Z, a joint Royal Navy/RAN fleet. HMAS Vampire survived numerous attacks from Japanese ships and aircraft before her luck ran out on 9 April 1942. HMAS Vampire was with the British aircraft carrier HMS Hermes when they wer...

This service honours HMAS Vampire and all those who served on her.
An aged destroyer in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), HMAS Vampire spent the first half of the Second World War in the Mediterranean. As part of the 'Scrap Iron Flotilla', she primarily took part in escort and patrol duties. In May 1941 she was assigned to the 'Tobruk Ferry Service', providing supplies and reinforcements to the besieged town. Engine problems saw her removed from service and sent to Singapore for repairs.
After Japan entered the war, HMAS Vampire remained in the Pacific as part of Force Z, a joint Royal Navy/RAN fleet. HMAS Vampire survived numerous attacks from Japanese ships and aircraft before her luck ran out on 9 April 1942.
HMAS Vampire was with the British aircraft carrier HMS Hermes when they were attacked by 94 Japanese planes off the coast of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Hit by over a dozen bombs, HMAS Vampire broke in two and sank. Her ensign was the last thing to submerge. Her commanding officer and eight sailors were lost, but the surviving crew were picked up by the hospital ship Vita.

The United States Navy has a long history of military strength. Considering its numerous aircraft carriers, destroyers, and submarines, it is by far the world's largest and potentially most capable Navy. But, beyond those, and beyond all the cruisers and patrol boats and other combat ships, there are two more that lurk in the shadows of the 490 ship fleets, they are: the USNS Mercy and the USNS Comfort.

Today we will look at how the US is testing its new gigantic hospital ship. Hospital ships or boats have an important role in the US Navy and other countries' military. These special medical ships work as a hospital if there is a need for one in a remote location or if many troops must be transported back to a safe environment. In today's short documentary we will have a closer look at the two medical boats in the us navy, the USNS Mercey and the USNS Comfort.

This service honours HMAS Vampire and all those who served on her.
An aged destroyer in the Royal Australian Navy (RAN), HMAS Vampire spent the first half of the Second World War in the Mediterranean. As part of the 'Scrap Iron Flotilla', she primarily took part in escort and patrol duties. In May 1941 she was assigned to the 'Tobruk Ferry Service', providing supplies and reinforcements to the besieged town. Engine problems saw her removed from service and sent to Singapore for repairs.
After Japan entered the war, HMAS Vampire remained in the Pacific as part of Force Z, a joint Royal Navy/RAN fleet. HMAS Vampire survived numerous attacks from Japanese ships and aircraft before her luck ran out on 9 April 1942.
HMAS Vampire was with the British aircraft carrier HMS Hermes when they were attacked by 94 Japanese planes off the coast of Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Hit by over a dozen bombs, HMAS Vampire broke in two and sank. Her ensign was the last thing to submerge. Her commanding officer and eight sailors were lost, but the surviving crew were picked up by the hospital ship Vita.

Hospital ship
A hospital ship is a ship designated for primary function as a floating medical treatment facility or hospital. Most are operated by the military forces (mostly navies) of various countries, as they are intended to be used in or near war zones.
Although attacking a hospital ship is a war crime, belligerent navies have the right to board such ships for inspections.
History
Early examples
Hospital ships possibly existed in ancient times. The Athenian Navy had a ship named Therapia, and the Roman Navy had a ship named Aesculapius, their names indicating that they may have been hospital ships.
It was only during the 17th century that it became customary for naval squadrons to be accompanied by special vessels with the job of taking in the wounded after each engagement. The first known such vessel was the HMS Goodwill, commissioned in 1608 for the Royal Navy. Hospital ships were also used for the treatment of wounded soldiers fighting on land. An early example of this was during an English operation to evacuate English Tangier in 1683. An account of this evacuation was written by Samuel Pepys, an eyewitness. One of the main concerns was the evacuation of sick soldiers "and the many families and their effects to be brought off". The hospital ship Unity and Welcome sailed for England on 18 October 1683 with 114 invalid soldiers and 104 women and children, arriving at The Downs on 14 December 1683.
