N to & a 1 T Z 3 Warch 1, 1941 Mari S 5 Miss Mary Ann bullivan, 57 Fenwood Road, Boston, Massachusetts D 3 5 rs, My dear Miss Sullivan: 5 The possibility of a June sailing is the most definite thing we have had yet. Our hospital buildings and equipment are now moving and it is by the schedule given for this that we are better able to judge the time of sailing for the greater part of the nursing staff. We must remember that the country to which we are going is at war and uncertainty is to be expected. The enclosed yellow fora, 615 A, ia a report required by all new American Red Cross employees and is filed in another, department; hence the necessity for asking you to answer questions most of which you have already answered. Widl you submit on the enclosed axpense voucher with receipted bills the cost of your immunization and x-ray and also passport fee and cost of passport pictures so that you may be reimbursed. Enclosed you will find instructions regarding payment of salary, etc. We would appreciate an early return of these two forms. For your interest, I am going to ask for 5 Pounds per month for personal requirements in England. I feel that this sum together with what I take sith me will be ample. Regarding luggage, if you have two pullman sise suit cases, you should be able to get all your things in. However, mine are smaller, so I am going to take a week-end bag as well. sincerely yours, Gertrude Madley, Chief Nurse, American Red Cross- 8 Harvard Hospital Unit. M/B Enc. - 3 O 8
