I've heard a rumour that westwood first was planning to use hospitals
to heal infantry (just like the repair-bay for vehicles), but that they
skipped this in the final version of the game.

The square is for tiberium. Hospitals have a small tiberium storage capacity,
just like the silo's and the refinary. Don't ask me why...
