Although Olive was an American stationed in Germany, she did her initial service training in England (where there is a London AFSC office) and several of the other workers in her section were from the U.K. In the immediate aftermath of the war, Germany was divided into "zones" that were overseen by militaries of the various Ally countries. Olive's assignments were in the British Zone and the French Zone, so while she did interact with U.S. military personnel occasionally, it was not a day-to-day occurrance. However, medical care (from major surgery to doctor check-ups) was provided to the AFSC workers by the temporary U.S. military hospital in Frankfurt.
