Be part of a powerful conversation in our Health & Wellness Series as we present “Hands, Head, and Heart: 125 Years of Army Nursing.”
For 125 years, military nurses have answered the call—serving with skill, compassion, leadership, and courage. Since the establishment of the Army Nurse Corps, the first official entry of women into the U.S. military, generations of nurses have shaped military medicine across every branch of service. Today’s military nurses stand firmly on the shoulders of these trailblazers.
