Medical: Evacuation. Aboard an Evacuation Transport, Korea. The duties of a flight nurse aboard Far East Air Forces medical evacuation transport of the 315th Air Division (Combat Cargo) are many and varied. 2nd Lt Pauline "Pat" Kircher, Saginaw, MI., member of the 801st Medical Air Evacuation Squadron, changes the dressing on a wounded man's arm during the aerial voyage from Korea to Japan. During a trip, she may give blood transfusions, perform minor surgery, treat patients for shock, feed and care for the entire group. Pat enjoys the double blessing of loving her work and being loved for it.
