My dear We were very sorry to be informed that you were rejected for military assignment because you were physically disqualified. We are reclassifying you as a second reserve nurse for service under the Red Cross in event of some disaster or other emergency occurring in your own locality. As a second reserve nurse you remain on the active list and are eligible for all service except military duty. If your disqualification is such that you may be able later to meet the first reserve requirements (such as by correction of weight) we shall be pleased to hear from you at that time. Sincerely yours, Mary Beard Director, Nursing Service 64264
