Backus, Secretary of our Minneapolis\nLocal Committee, has sent us your address questionnaire completed on\nJuly 31st, calling our attention to your note on the back of the\nform. We are of course sorry that you are no longer available for\nany type of active service under the Red Cross but are pleased to\nbe able to advise you that you do not have to give up your enroll-\nment and return your appointment card and badge for this reason.\nEnclosed is a copy of our pamphlet, ARC 703, in which we have\nmarked certain paragraphs on page 7 which explain our present\nmethod of classifying our entire enrollment into three reserves.\nIn view of the information you have given us we are now classify-\ning you in the third reserve which is an inactive classification.\nYour records will be taken out of our active files and you will\nnot be requested to fill in annual questionnaires but you will\nhave the privilege of retaining your enrollment and your appoint-\nment card and badge. Then, if at some time in the future circum-\nstances so change that you wish to again be numbered among our\nactive nurses, we will be pleased to have you request reinstate-\nment to an active classification.\nTrusting we have made this clear and with best\nwishes, believe me\nSincerely yours,\nIda F. Butler\nDirector of Nursing\nMR-ec"
