Ms. Carter describes working on the venereal disease ward at a hospital in Horsham.
Transcription
And so I worked in the venereal disease building. Anything privates and sergeants even the sergeant major I guess, if they had venereal disease and they had to be treated from the moment their treatment started when they came before a medical officer or came into the hospital they had to go into the hospital, they would lose pay. They wouldn't be paid until they got out again and it would be written in their pay, in their book. We had little books. And I always thought that was most unfair because the officers came and got their medication while they drank tea with us and their treatments and they didn't lose any pay.
