Army Nurses

Published January 20, 2009 2:51 PM by Stephen Cornell

Interesting article on U.S. Army nurses on the ADVANCE for Nurses Web site.

Both men and women have served as Army nurses since 1775, but the Army Nurse Corps (ANC) did not become a part of the Army Medical Department until 1901.1

Today, more than 9,000 Army nurses are serving in the active Army, Army Reserve or Army Reserve National Guard throughout the world conducting multiple military and humanitarian actions in support of Operation Enduring Freedom.2

These nurses are top notch, efficient and true members of the team. Much credit goes to these clinicians who are subject to the same attacks as other military personnel. Thanks for mentioning them steve.
