OFTHE TO SECURE PROPER ATTENTION, YOUR REPLY SHOULD BE ADDRESSED TO BUREAU OF MEDICINE AND SURGERY NAVY DEPARTMENT WASHINGTON, D.C. AND REFERENCE SHOULD BZ MADE T LSH-BHW No. 115738 MEDICINE A. R. WASHINGTON, D.C. April $9, 1919. APR301919 My dear Miss Noyes: P.eferred/t mustings The nurses will do everything possible to express the esteem in which they held Miss Delano and I believe tha t all Navy nurses who are on duty in Washing- ton and vicinity will be present at the Memorial - Services, approximately seventy, but if the num- ber is beyond this I will notify you so soon as I hear from Quantico and Annapolis. The suggestion that the nurses should be in uniform will be followed. As you know the uniform was not made compulsory for the 2 Navy and very few who are on duty at the 4 Naval Hospitals are equipped with out door uniforms. I wondering if these nurses I could wear their white uniforms, their caps, and Red Cross capes, while the visiting nurses w would wear their out door uniforms. I am 0 afraid this is the only way we could have an appearance of uniformity. If the suggestion meets with your approval I think it would result in a larger number being present. Very truly yours, Levan Superintendent, Navy S. Nurse Corps. Miss Clara D. Noyes, Acting Director, Department of Nursing, American Red Cross, Washington, D.C.
