Fort Belvoir Community Hospital revealed its new name at a memorialization ceremony on May 16.
The hospital was originally given a placeholder name until officials could find someone that embodies the base’s values to name it in honor of.
The new name for the hospital is Alexander T. Augusta Military Medical Center, named after Dr. Alexander Thomas Augusta of Norfolk. Augusta was the first African American physician in the United States Army and the first Black professor of medicine in the United States.
