Miss Laurine Alva Smith,
Butterworth Hospital,
Grand Rapids, Michigan
My dear Miss Smith:
The hysician in Michigan, by whom final physical
examinations of all nurses assigned to the American Red
Cross-Harvard Hospital Unit are being made, is Dr. S.
Milton Goldhammer, Assistant Professor of Medicine, University
of Michigan, Ann Arbor. We are notifying him of your appoint-
ment to the Unit, pending report of the final physical examination.
You should get in touch with him for an appointment as soon as
possible. If you will submit an itemized account of the expenses
of the trip to Ann Arbor, the Red Cross will reimburse you.
We are enclosing a copy of your physical examination report.
This you should take with you when you report for the final exam-
ination, and also the film of your chest X-Ray.
The cost of this physical examination is covered by the
Red Cross.
We have decided now to wear white shoes and white stockings
on duty, and ten stockings with black shoes for street wear. It
would seem that two pairs of white shoes and two pairs of black
will be required.
Sincerely yours,
Gertrude Medley,
Chief Nurse,
American Red Cross-
Harvard Hospital Unit.
