Katherine Irene Hall joined the South African Military Nursing Service on 8 September 1914 for service in German South West Africa. Initially posted to Luderitz Bay, she was discharged on 25 June 1915 upon the cessation of operations in this theatre. Re-enlisting on 22 December 1915 for service in East Africa, she served at No. 2 General Hospital and aboard the Hospital Ship Ebani from 4 May 1917 to 15 June 1917. She later sailed for England aboard the Hospital Ship Neuralia on 15 April 1918, but any further service was hampered by failing health and she was discharged on 13 October 1919.
