enfir May 15,1944 15 Miss Agnes Severin Berg State Chairmen, Committee for Nurses Procurement and Assignment Service 139 North Virginia Street Reno, Nevada My dear Miss Berg: I have just received word from Miss Bernice Mildred Renfro, who is at in Hawaii, that she contemplates joining the Nevy Nurse Corps as soon as she returns to the Mainland. She anticipates that and will be available for service upon com- pletion of some personal matters, about June 15th. In order to expedite her appointment, I mondered if it vould be possible for you to classify her available at this time. She expects to be staying with her sister, Mrs. Alfred Oats, Fallon, Nevada, and does not contemplate accepting any civilian nursing employment in the United States preliminary to her appointment with the llavy Nurse Corps. For your convenience, we are enclosing a clearance form hoping that this will facilitate early action. I realize that this is an unusual request and that it is exceedingly difficult to classify a nurse who is not even in this country but, barring accident in transportation, I think her plans will go through as contemplated, provided we can get en availability classification. Sincerely yours, Gertrude s. Banfield Ass't. Director, Nursing Service Enclosure GSB:mab U
