Miss Nellie Turner recalls wartime nursing in Washington
In a Monticello letter Miss Nellie B. Turner, former Monticello school music supervisor and longtime Green Hall resident nurse, recounts joining the Army Nurse Corps in July 1918, managing a flu hospital, and later directing nurses at a Washington State, War and Navy building. She praises colleagues, describes crowded quarters, and notes the White House view from her office while reflecting on a life of service and change.
