Nurses in Caribbean air base

AT AN AIR BASE IN THE CARIBBEAN. Left to right: Nurse Lt. Myrtle Miller, Lansing, Mich.; Nurse Lt. Jane Jordan, New Glasgow, Va.; and Nurse Lt. Irene Gukeisen, Parkston, So. Dakota. Nurses such as these, who have been on foreign service since shortly after the declaration of war, have been thoroughly trained in jungle rescue work and in evacuation of wounded by air. They are seen smiling from the doorway of a transport plane such as would be used for evacuation.
