After field dressing the wounds of the "patient" during drills, the members of the Women's Emergency Motor Corps load her into the back of a station wagon for transport. The Motor Corps was a branch of the Tacoma Home Defense Corps. They were available in case of an emergency to provide first aid, drive, or assist in communication. (T. Times 5/6/1941, pg. 1)
