Naomi Saulf

Captain Naomi Saulf was a short, driven woman with natural bleach blonde hair and a penchant for anatomy and physiology. She was young but had moved up quickly in the Army. She had become a nurse during the war, and afterwards she was quickly recognized for her biological talents. Her brilliance and abilities scared many of her male counterparts, and they showed it by degrading her and trying to make her feel less than she was. Other men, men who mattered, saw the spark within her and recognized her brilliance for what it was and helped her to advance. However men perceived or treated her, she was very secure in her skin and knew what she was. She was a strong and optimistic woman whose talents and abilities shone through in every aspect of her work.

It was more than just her good looks and charm that got Captain Saulf noticed by her superior officers. Naomi was smart; very smart. When she was in high school, she wanted nothing more than to be a scientist. From the time she was very young she had taken a keen interest in biology. She loved animals and was absolutely fascinated by all living things. Her interest in animals went far beyond that of most of her peers. They all “loved animals” and had images of ponies or puppies embroidered on their skirts, or as paintings hanging on their walls, but Naomi really loved animals. She wanted to know everything there was to know about all of them. So much so that she could occasionally be found closely examining a recently dead dog, killed by a car, or a deer carcass, being cleaned by a hunter. She took any class she could that would give her the chance to dissect a frog, or a fetal pig. Any class that had a human skeleton hanging in it, or a gerbil running in a wheel in its cage, Naomi could be found there. Inside and out, Naomi was mesmerized by animals.

When she graduated high school, she was quickly accepted in the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania. It was the first medical colleges for women in the world, and it was more than an honor for Naomi. Having grown up in Pennsylvania, she had heard of the College early on in her life. As she got older, and her interests became more defined, she had decided that medicine might be the best direction for her to go. The war in Europe had been going strong, and there were growing hints that America might get dragged into the war as well. They would need nurses.

Sure enough, the following year America was drawn into the war with Germany and the Axis powers. At the end of her sixth semester at the Woman's Medical College of Pennsylvania she decided to enlist in the Army and join the war effort.

During the war Naomi proved herself to be more than just a nurse. Her expertise and passionate knowledge about the inner workings of the body far surpassed many of the field medics that she worked subordinate to.
