    "ocrText": "for Red Cross volunteers, expediting the efficiency of casework. She then\nestablished a schedule of continuous coverage by the caseworkers. Again she\nconducted an effective television and radio publicity campaign concerning\nthe work of the caseworkers, thereby educating the base personnel about the\nRed Cross services available to them. Mrs. Wallace is a superior caseworker.\nShe is sought by families in financial difficulty for counsel and information\npertaining to the benefits of Red Cross loans and grants. Wakkanai Air\nStation's remote location causes numerous problems in maintenance of communi-\ncation between servicemen and their families in the United States. Mrs.\nWallace provides individualized attention to each inquiry concerning the\nhealth and welfare of servicemen stationed here. In each situation she\npersonally interviews the serviceman and helps the people to establish a\nsatisfactory method of communication.\n.\nMrs. Wallace has an unusually fine ability to provide emotional support\nto persons receiving emergency messages. In some emergency situations, Mrs.\nWallace has driven or walked in severe weather to locate servicemen and\nfamilies to provide assistance and counsel. Because of the remote environ-\nment it is often quite complicated to evacuate servicemen or their dependents.\nHowever, Mrs. Wallace works continuously with both the family and the military\nuntil the involved party has been evacuated. She is aware of the needs of\nthe entire family and assists the family in planning for the period when the\nmember is away. She often assists in providing financial loans, mother's\naides, and necessary travel information.\nIn addition I would like to mention that Mrs. Wallace has been nominated\nfor the Military Wife of the Year Award for her many hours of volunteer/\ncommunity service, truly a hallmark of her outstanding leadership and\ndevotion to her fellow man.\nMatton Field ILLIAM Director N.
