This folder contains letters and v-mail to Bowman's parents from January 8, 1944-March 27, 1944. Letters and v-mail cover her time working for the Red Cross in India. Many of her letters include impressions of India and Indian people and how they compare to back home. In a letter from March 1, 1944, she included photographs of herself and friends. There are also letters concerned with issues at home and its mining industry, and she encouraged her parents to leave for Lakeland or Tampa. In March of 1944, she mailed home a clipping of The ARC Light (a publication of the American Red Cross in China-Burma-India Command) from January of 1944, covering American GIs coming to visit Red Cross women.
