Interview with Geraldine Brown, March 4, 1979
Project: Frontier Nursing Service Oral History Project
Interview Summary
Geraldine Brown's daughter was an FNS courier, and Brown contrasts the current duties of couriers with those of times past when horses were used. She feels that the "simplicity" is gone from the experience and that the absence of horses reduces the appeal for young women. Brown is a member of the Cleveland Committee but has had no direct association with the FNS.Interview Accession
