Nurse Tells of Kodiak Station
"Wild places equal to the gold rush days" is the description Miiss Mary Patrick Stanton, army nurse, gives of the U. S. naval base on the island of Kodiak off the Southwestern shores of Alaska. Miss Stanton, daughter of Mrs. Emma Stanton, 714 St. Anthony street, is a Santa Rosa graduate. At the completion of her course she spent six months in training at Camp Bowie and two months at Fort Lewis, Washington, before her transfer to the naval base with nine other nurses. Miss Stanton relates that there is not as yet any recreation for the soldiers and that there are only two very small churches. One is a Russian Orthodox where visitors pay 50 cents at the door and an Episcopal church, whose rector serves as minister, counselor and adviser for all occasions. Miss Stanton closes her letter thus: "The trees and mountains are God's own; such a beautiful picture, there is no comparison. Every time I look up at one of these trees breathing to us a blessing from God, I never fail to pray. "This is a true and loyal bunch of nurses to Uncle Sam, always and forever. Armistice day is very soon, Mother, and you will get on the bus very conveniently, ride to St. Mark's church door and partake of the Holy Communich. I've been thinking that heretofore religion has been a little too easy."

San Antonio Nurse Commended For Unselfish Devotion to Duty
A San Antonio nurse, Mary P. Stanton, daughter of Mrs. Emma Stanton, 714 St. Anthony St., has been commended for unselfish devotion to duty during the evacuation of women and children from an Alaskan outpost. She was mentioned along with two other Army nurses, one of whom was also a Texan. The announcement was made Friday from an Alaskan port by the headquarters of the Western Defense Command and the Fourth Army, an Associated Press dispatch said. The other nurses were Miss Maurice Wheeler of Hughesville, Mo., and Miss Dorothy McFadden of Mount Sylvan, Tex. Brig. Gen. Charles H. Corlett said the nurses' "accomplishment of this mission was a credit not only to the military service, but to the nursing profession." Miss Stanton lived in San Antonio for several years when she was a child. Her family then moved to Del Rio, where she was graduated from high school, and then moved back to San Antonio when she entered Santa Rosa Hospital for her nurse's training. She was graduated from Santa Rosa after three and a half years' training in 1938 and entered the Army Nurses Corps at Camp Bowie in February, 1941. She has since served in Fort Lewis, Wash., and Fort Greeley, Aleutian Islands.

S.A. Nurse Receives Citation
Home After Two Years of Service
The first San Antonio army nurse to receive an official citation for the performance "over and above the line of duty" in World War II is back home again. She is Lieut. Mary Patrick Stanton, here with her mother, Mrs. Emma Stanton ay 714 St. Anthony street, after more than two years in Alaska and surrounding territory. And she's far happier talking about northern "willi waws" and how ir feels to be called a "cheechakos" than she is when the word "citation" comes up. "It can't be of any importance. It all happened long ago and I really did nothing extra" That's Lieutenant Stanton's opinion.
* * *
The commanding officer at her post and on the evacuation ship U. S. S. Grant felt differently about the performance of Mary Patrick and two other nurses who cared for hundreds of evacuees fleeing from Alaska on that navy vessel after Dutch Harbor was bombed. They felt, and each put it in writing, that the army nurses had proved their mettle in more ways than one. It almost a week for the Grant to reach Seattle from northern waters where women and children and army and navy personnel were picked up for the hastily-arranged voyage. All America was aware of the danger in those waters during that December, but few heard of the heroism of three nurses whose special job was administering to the needs of their many charges. Fixing formulas for the feeding of 80 babies was only one of their chores. Illness, seasickness and attendance on expectant mothers were others requiring constant attention. When the 24-hour duty they maintained is mentioned, Lieutenant Stanton merely replies: "A nurse in the service of the country should be ready for that at any time she is needed." A graduate of Santa Rosa hospital in 1938, Lieutenant Stanton enlisted for army service in January, 1941, and was in the first group of nurses sent to Alaska, arriving exactly two months before Pearl Harbor. They were all relieved and given changes of station this past month, with the San Antonio member coming out by plane in attendance on a patient bound for Vancouver. Lieutenant Stanton liked Alaska from the time she arrived as a "cheechakos" or newcomer, until she left. Splendid quarters and entertainment facilities are available now, an improvement on the first days when she recalls their motion picture tent being lifted into the air during a show by a sudden "willi waw" - Alaskan counterpart of a sudden Texas "norther".
Nurses are need in the northern theater of war as they are everywhere, this "veteran" states. She says, "If we nurses simply recognize our Christian duty, there will be no need to urge enlistments in the service." Lieutenant Stanton is very proud of her mother and brother, whom she calls "real heroes". Edwin F. Stanton is a chief machinist's mate with the Seabees and has been "preparing the ground for marines to land" in the Pacific islands, according to a recent uncensored letter. Mrs. Stanton has "just stayed home" while her two children were at war, she declares. But she has been kept busy every day with Red Cross and church work and, according to her daughter, has done a perfect job of keeping morale high for her absent family.
