I am a graduate of Germantown Hospital and Medical Center, Philadelphia, PA, class of 1948. We have so many little stories of interest. The sound of a piercing GONG going off at 10 p.m. we had to be in our rooms. At 10:30 p.m. GONG meant, all lights out.  If we needed more study time, it was underneath our blankets with the aid of a flashilight.

My two sisters and I were very fortunate and proud to be Cadet Nurses and have many fond memories.

I thank you.
