Responding to the call Your Country Needs You, cadet nurses became the largest and youngest group of uniformed women to serve their country in uniform during World War II. The Corps program was established primarily to expand the quantity of nursing service personnel during a critical nurse shortage. Thanks to federal funding, nursing leaders took advantage of the opportunity to improve nursing education. Wearing the scarlet and grey uniform also gave cadets the confidence to speak out regarding an authoritative nurse training system prevalent in the 1940’s. This book gives a better understanding as to the advances made in nursing education during the past half century.
