E.\nMinneapolis, Minn.\nMy dear Miss Petry:\nAt the time of your enrollment in the Red Cross\nNursing Service you indicated your preference to be recorded\nas a reserve nurse for the Army Nurse Corps. Because of the\nlocation in which you are living your name is, therefore,\nlisted with the Commander of the Seventh Corps Area, with\nHeadquarters at Omaha, Nebraska.\nA recent communication to this office indicates that\nthe letters sent to you by the Corps Area Commander have not\nbeen answered. Since the letters have not been returned, it\nis assumed that they reached you.\nAs you know, the Corps Area plans are drawn up so\nthat in a military emergency no time would be lost. Nurses\nwould not be requested to serve with the Army except in great\nemergency such as war. Your plans as a civilian are in no way\ninterfered with by your being on the reserve list of the Corps\nArea, and we feel sure that as a First Reserve nurse you would\nwish to be available if you should be needed. In any instance\nin which nurses are needed, personal obligations such as illness\nin the nurse's family are, of course, always taken in considera-\ntion at the time.\nWe, therefore, hope that you will answer the last letter\nwhich you have received from the Corps Area Commander. If, by\nchance, a letter has not reached you, or you have lost the letter,\nwill you clear your record by writing to the Corps Area Commander\nindicating this, and offering to give the necessary information.\nSincerely yours,\nMary Beard,\nDirector, Nursing Service.\n61380"
