During his time on Guam, Dr. Crandall tended to the medical needs of Filipino revolutionaries that had been exiled to Guam by the United States and was part of the opening of a Naval hospital that also treated local civilians. He also experienced several devastating earthquakes while stationed on Guam, one of which destroyed the original US Naval hospital, built in 1899.
