This historic facility served as a sanctuary for sailors in rehab during the tumultuous years of World War II. Amidst the backdrop of conflict and uncertainty, these brave men found solace within these walls, where their physical fitness and recovery were nurtured with utmost care. Encouraged by dedicated medical professionals, they embarked on a journey towards healing by conquering Jacobs Ladder – an iconic symbol of resilience.
