DeWitt General Hospital in Auburn, California operated as a major Army general hospital during and immediately after World War II, and like many military installations of the period it issued its own scrip for use in on-base facilities — canteen, PX, recreational services — to keep federal currency from drifting off post. This 1 Cent denomination is the lowest in the DeWitt series, and fractional military scrip of this value saw heavy transactional use, which accounts for why surviving examples in clean condition are genuinely uncommon.
The hospital closed in 1946, and unredeemed scrip became worthless almost immediately upon decommissioning.
