Heroic Tale of a Tail Gunner

[Brit plumber]

My Great Anti was Sqn Ldr Nurse with the PMRAFNS at Manston and she used to tell me of the times she had to go in the Ambulance to pick up the casualties from the crashed Aircraft. I have some buttons she was given by one pilot she rescued (Or more likely she cut them off his tattered uniform as a souvenir)

PMRAFNS

Thanks Brit Plumber. Could you translate for this Yank for what the "PMRAFNS" stands for? Also, any of your Great Aunt's stories you remember might create some more colour for the story I'm writing. I'm sure a lot of pilots and crew were deeply touched by her caring soul. Are their any letters to her from rescued airmen? Do you have any idea how these bases were staffed or how many nurses were assigned, etc.? Anything you might know helps add to pieces of the puzzle.
Thanks, Robert
