You should have by this time received a letter from\nthe Army inquiring about your availebility for service\nwith the Army. The Army Service, of course, does not\nnecessarily mean that you would have foreign service,\nbut there is a good deal of likelihood of such service\nwithin the Army.\nAs you know, anesthetists enter the Army as\ngeneral staff nurses in the same way that all nurses with\nspecial training enter, but as there are quite a few open-\nings for enesthetists, the Army is on the lookout for nurses\nwho can be assigned immediately to such service.\nI am enclosing géneral information about assign-\nment to foreign service with the Red Cross. At the mom-\nent, the unit 'for Hewaii is the only unit being assigned\nunder the Red Cross, and the quote for this unit is now\ncompleted. We are glad to keep you in mind for acpossible\nRed Cross assignment but urge you to consider immediate\nArmy Service if you are available.\nSincerely yours,\nVirginia M. Dunber\nAssistant Director\nNursing Service\nWDDfr\ninc."
