More About Buelah Mancl

Mancl volunteered for the Army Nurses Corps. She left Appleton for basic training at Camp Bowie, Texas, in 1943. She had already earned a nursing certificate from St. Mary School of Nursing in Milwaukee earlier in the year. She joined the Army because she wanted to see the world and use her nursing skills.
