Question, about this part of the letter: "I have four day nurses and five night nurses (female) a ward-master, and four orderlies".
Does anyone know why it was important to point out they were female? Were army nurses typically male?
Anyways, I'm reading about the 1918 flu a lot lately and came upon parts of this text multiple times. I'm still not sure if it's making me more or less paranoid about Covid-19, but it's definitely fascinating.
