Description

Black and white cabinet card photograph of four women carrying a bandaged man on a stretcher. The women wear blouses with dark skirts and have their hair pinned back in low buns. They appear to be in a yard or some type of enclosed outdoor area, as there is a building structure, grass, a wooden fence with a cross hatch entrance, and a cement walkway leading from the entrance along the building. The woman at the head of the stretcher (on the right in the photograph) is Grace Burdick. The cabinet card has bevelled edges with a grey front and back surface. Around the photograph is a raised double-line border with a line of small "fleur-de-lis"-like decorations around the outside. Written on the back in black ink is the message, "TO MAMA - WITH LOVE/ FROM/ GRACE". This picture shows Grace Burdick practicing emergency disaster relief through her officer training in Chicago at the Women's Training College. She entered officer training and was commissioned in 1908.
