Loyal Iowa nurse praised by soldiers in Camp Merritt
A letter from Camp Merritt, California dated July 19 1898, recounts nurse Miss Weeks tending three ill Iowa volunteers, earning praise from officers and soldiers. The 51st Iowa regimental band cheers her, and she may accompany the Manila-bound unit. The message notes generous California fruit baskets and Red Cross visits as the Iowa boys prepare for transport on July 25.
