In June of this year, a formal opening was held for the opening of Hendricks Hall - a quonset hut made into a recreation hall for nurses. The idea for such was thought of and suggested by Lieutenant (junior grade) Hendricks, who was killed in an airplane crash in April of 1944. In her honor the hall was named. The hall boasts of a ping pong table, dart games, piano, exercise mat, and other recreational facilities. Here the nurses spend much of their leisure time. Ensign Mary Vaughan and Lieutenant (junior grade) Esther Grody ask a visitor to sign their guest book. This is one of the "formalities" of the hall. NAS [Naval Air Station] Dutch Harbor.
