| Description | WiN-40-32: How U.S. Navy Nurses Keep Fit. “Keep fit to keep fighting men fit,” is the motto of nurses at the U.S. Naval Hospital, San Diego, California, who have inaugurated a rigorous physical training program. Voluntarily participating in sports and calisthenics, the U.S. Navy Nurses are preparing themselves to withstand the wartime physical demands of long hours during emergencies and of service outside the continental limits of the United States. The sports have the additional advantage of providing off-hour recreation and of keeping the nurses trim. Added zest has been given the games by competition between nurses quartered at Balboa Park and those living on the hospital compound, and between nurses and WAVES. Unused grounds on the hospital reservation on have been utilized in providing recreational facilities. A hilly area in front of the administration building has been covered with grass, trees and flowers and converted into a nine-hole golf course. Shown is U.S. Navy Nurse Helen Trebolo, USNR, keeping herself fit by practicing archery several times each week. Her regular job is that of a dietician in the sick officer quarters, June 1943.
