Title: Medical nuns at work in Vietnam.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: C-32144 MEDICAL NUNS AT WORK IN VIETNAM QUINHON, So. Vietnam -- The Medical Mission Sisters of Philadelphia continue to operate the only general hospital for civilians in Quinhon, South Vietnam, where Communist guerrillas recently bombed an American Army barracks. One of the nuns, Sister Sheila Marie McGinnis of Troy, N.Y., is shown taking time out from nursing duties at the hospital to go over lessons with a little boy. His arm and side were badly burned by a kerosene lamp. The medical nuns are the only American sisterhood working it Vietnam. Their Holy Family Hospital is staffed by professionally trained nuns, assisted by Vietnamese nurses and aides, who last year treated 25,000 out-patients and several thousands in-patients. The nuns also maintain other medical centers in Asia, Africa and South America. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (FRE-2C-65-NAB)
