March 12, 1950. Miss Winifred Ryan, 2814 Portland Avenue, Minneapolis, Minn. My dear Miss Ryan: We are very anxious to secure a copy of the citation which was given by the Government of Serbia to many of our Red Cross Nurses who served in that country following the war. This is desired by the state of Indiana, which is having a history written on participation in the World War by individuals in that state. They desire to incorporate therein a record of the citations received by one of our Red Cross nurses. We have been able to secure a copy of the citation that accompanied the Red Cross silver medal, but so far have been unsuccessful in securing a copy of the citation that accompanied the "Cross of Mercy." If you will send me your copy, by registered mail, I will have a photography made and return the original to you with all due promptness. Thanking you, I am Very sincerely yours, N.H National Director, Nursing Service.
