alissajjeep Posted November 10, 2015 Share #1 Posted November 10, 2015 I have seen it done both ways, and maybe both are correct. But what was worn under the jacket? I know it was a uniform meant for warm weather, but did they wear shirt and tie? What color tie? Was the shirt a standard nurses top or a different one just for flight nurses? Id love vintage photos of the uniform being worn too. Thank you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutiger83 Posted November 10, 2015 Share #2 Posted November 10, 2015 Here are some pictures that I posted on the forum of flight nurses http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/245025-pictures-of-wwii-flight-nurses/?hl=%2Bflight+%2Bnurse I am not sure if you have seen the Blitzkrieg website. If you click on ANC, then you can see the Army Nurse Corps uniform. There is a section for the flight nurse uniforms. http://www.blitzkriegbaby.de/homepage.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutiger83 Posted November 10, 2015 Share #3 Posted November 10, 2015 In post #20 on this thread, Steve has the khaki flight nurse uniform. I can't quite read the tag but it looks like all of the items, even the shirt, says flight nurse. You could ask him a question about the shirts that he has in his collection. http://www.usmilitariaforum.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235242-some-of-my-womens-uniforms-collection/ ...Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cutiger83 Posted November 10, 2015 Share #4 Posted November 10, 2015 Last night, I was looking thru my reference book, "Women for Victory". In the book, she shows the K-1 jacket being worn without a shirt. On the Blitzkrieg website, she shows the K-1 uniform with a shirt and tie. I wonder if it could have been worn either with or without a shirt.....Kat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alissajjeep Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share #5 Posted November 10, 2015 Kat, i had seen this too,that's why i wasn't sure what way. I didn't know if it was one way or another definitively... Thank you all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
