Harriett's membership card

Harriett Stinson Johnston's cousin writes that Harriett passed away on November 2, 2015, at age 92 in Tacoma, Washington. She worked as an RN up until retirement in both the private sector and in Public Health for the State of Washington. He also reports that he has a copy of her #300A form that shows her graduation of 8/26/45. She told him that she was scheduled to enter the Navy but World War II ended. Harriett was again contacted by the Navy during the Korean War for induction into active service. Because her status had changed to married with children, however, Harriett was not eligible.
