for every American soldier killed in action
and may not get the cai
The long list of war dead does not male pleasant reading ...
Nor does the situation in regard to our wounded. For they are coming back
to America at the rate of 1,000 a day I And unless something is done, these
men may not get enough proper care.
Their need is so great But the help, to date, has been so shamefully small.
At the moment, each Army nurse in this country is handling more than
twice as many beds as any person is cfliciently able to handle.
The country is doing everything in its power to recruit more nurses.
Bui at the same rime a vast effort must be made to stretch the professional
usefulness of every single Army nurse on duty in the United States. This
is why Wacs are needed to help note.
More than 8,000 Cacs are needed immediately in Army General Hospitals in
the United States to help Army doctors and nurses in their tremendous task.
Previous experience, is not necessary. Any woman aged 20 to 49 inclusive
uu'rh two years of high school (or the equivalent schooling) may apply.
If yon meet enlistment requirements, you will be given basic training
before being sent to a recognised Army Medical Technician School. After
six weeks of technical training, you will be assigned to an Army hospital,
where you will have four weeks of additional on-the-job-training.
SELECT DUTY AT ONE OF THESE
Vacs who complete training satisfactorily become Technicians Fifth Grado
right away., v
Hospital companies, comprising medical, surgical and other technicians, and
clerical workers are now being organized by the' Women's Army Corps to
provide this urgently needed help.
Join your local WAC Hospital Unit. One is being organized in this
community now. Get your friends to enlist with you, serve together in the '
same Army Hospitals.
Never in history was a woman's war Job so clearly defined. So obvious ...
so urgent.
Thile yon hesitate . . . the terrible list grotvs and grouts.
Our wounded are waiting for you, so patiently, so bravely, so sure youH come.
