Florence MacLeod Harper, Staff War Correspondent for Leslie's Weekly, as a Nurse in Russia - Blood Stained Russia - pictures from a 1918 book by Captain Donald C. Thompson

Harper

Florence MacLeod Harper, taking a lesson on the balalaika. She was a surgical nurse at the field hospital of which Colonel Hurd was the commanding officer. On fine days as many men as possible were moved outside into the fresh air; although this entailed a lot of extra work for the orderlies, I never heard one of them grumble.
