Army Nurse Grouping and More!

[Austin R]

I just picked all this up from a woman who went to an auction at a vintage clothing museum. A new fashion show on bravo was bidding against her for the lot. I can't imagine what they were going to do to it. I'm happy that it was saved.

Army nurses are officers. Are there other uniforms in the group?

Some one who was assigned to a medical unit, could have been a clerk, supply, cook, or medical orderly, driver, anything other than a Nurse. Not every one assigned to medical units are medical personell.

I found a name on the uniform. It belonged to a Olive (Olivia) J Brown who was 49 when she enlisted. It says she was widowed; is it possible that her husband was KIA?

I think it was a mistake by the NARA because the age limit of enlistment was 18-35. I believe her husband was unfortunately killed during the war.
