    Air Force Major Witt Essay

    Air Force Major Margaret Witt was an accomplished, decorated, and by all accounts outstanding flight nurse throughout 19 years in military service.[16] She received superb performance evaluations and numerous high awards and honors in recognition of her superior career achievements. The Air Force made her a literal “poster child” in 1993, when it selected her to be prominently featured in its recruiting and promotional materials as the “model” Air Force nurse.[17] Serving for most of her career in Aeromedical Evacuation Squadrons, Major Witt was responsible for providing inflight care and treatment of ill and injured servicemembers during transport aboard military aircraft.[18] She served in Europe in the 1990’s, caring for ill and wounded in Bosnia, and in the Middle East, where she served on dozens of flight missions to rescue and treat soldiers fighting in Iraq.[19]…

    Pearl Harbor Nurse History

    This paper will summarize the history of Nursing during World War II – The attack on Pearl Harbor. On the historic date known as December 7th, 1941, at 7:55 am- over three hundred Japanese pilots attacked the base known as Pearl Harbor in Oahu, Hawaii. This left over 2,235 military personnel and roughly 68 civilians dead. This attack, over 60 years ago, was one of the greatest milestones and historical turning point for women in the United States as they would become military nurses. The calm response and skill of these nurses contributed to low post-injury mortality rates during the war. There were only 82 nurses working at three medical facilities in Hawaii on the day of the attack. Here is a quote through an interview with one of the Registered…

    The Girl On The Magazine Chapter 5 Analysis

    In The Girl on the Magazine Cover chapter five, the author explains how American history and mass media shaped the image of women. Carolyn Kitch writes about stereotypes for women in the 1900’s and how their origins were created through propaganda posters. Kitch argues how women were represented in two different views during the war times. The “Militant Victory” idea presented women as strong and courageous and was seen as the “New Woman” personality. The contradiction of this was “The Protecting Angel” where women were depicted as angels and nurses who displayed values of the COTW, protecting the conservative notions about females.…

    Women in the Civil War - How did women help with the war effort? Who were some famous females in the Civil War?

    "Over 3,000 women served as nurses between 1861 and 1865. Since nursing schools were not established until 1873 they had no formal training. Many had no work experience outside the home." (http://www.northnet.org) As nurses, women worked in hospitals taking care of wounded soldiers. The novelist Louisa May Alcott described the soldiers as "riddled with shot and shell" and "torn and shattered". Two famous nurses were Mary Edwards Walker, who earned a Congressional Medal Honor for her medical service, and Clara Barton. Clara Barton was known as the "Angel of the Battlefield," she used her home as a warehouse to store medical supplies, and with the help of her friends, she distributed them to troops. When the government began to send adequate supplies, she began an organization to locate missing soldiers. In 1869, she founded the American Red Cross, after traveling abroad. Dorthea Dix, who originally worked towards improving the care of mentally ill people, was recruited as the superintendent of the Union army nurses. She made hospitals, oversaw sewing societies, helped get medical supplies, and recruited and trained women to be nurses. "Her requirements in a nurse were strict - not too young, not too pretty, and of strict moral character. She preferred farm women accustomed to the sight of blood. Nurses wore only plain brown or black dresses with no hoop skirts, jewelry, or accessories and no curls."…

    Nursing during the American Civil War

    The American Civil War occurred between 1861 and 1865. When the war began, there was no organized medical corps for either the Union Army or the Confederate Army. Up until then, nursing was still considered a “loose term” as far what a nurse is and does. There were no official nursing schools or professional trained nurses available. As newspapers wrote about the poor and unsanitary conditions that wounded solider were subjected to, hundreds of women volunteered to help provide assistance to the wound solders (Egenes). Make-shift hospital and clinics were created on the battlefield to care for the wounded.…

    Nursing Sisters Essay

    Nursing Sisters were female medical professionals who served in the Canadian Army Medical Corps during the First World War and the Second World War. Nursing Sisters treated casualties in different types of military medical establishments, varying from forward evacuation points adjacent to the battlefields, to fully equipped hospitals far away from the battlefields as described by the Canada’s Nursing sisters. The nurses were trained and then allowed to treat the soldiers at the warfront.

    My View on Becoming Jane

    Unquestionably, the heroine Jane is my favorite character in this film. The story happened in 1796, when 20-year old Jane Austen met the roguish Tom Lefroy- a poor student of law who is dependent upon his rich uncle for his allowance. Then, they fall madly in love with each other though they are unsuited to one another. While Jane pursues a romance with Tom, she indulges her other passion: writing. She begins to write her famous novel--Pride and Prejudice.…
