Base Hospital 46 is described at https://www.ohsu.edu/historical-collections-archiv...6-during-world-war-i,
During the period Joseph Sprinz was atttached, the above article describes the hospital as follows:
“On July 19, 1918, the base hospital moved into its permanent location at the hospital center, comprised of twenty 50-bed wards and 1,000 beds in tents. Between July 23, 1918, when the hospital received its first convoy of patients, and January 19, 1919, when all B.H. 46 patients were evacuated to other hospitals in the center, the hospital admitted 8,366 patients. The base hospital center in Bazoilles-sur-Meuse was primarily an evacuation hospital, and only about a quarter of the patients treated there returned to active service. “
