kcmo Posted May 5, 2017 Share #26 Posted May 5, 2017 Very nice group. Probably one of the rarest Purple Hearts out there. Definitely toward the top of my list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LindaC Posted July 4, 2022 Share #28 Posted July 4, 2022 Hi, I am new to this forum - do you by any chance have a copy of Beatrice’s MSCC ? Also, is it possible to obtain a photo permission for Beatrice to add to her image to The National Purple Heart Hall of Honor database? The website is thepurpleheart.com - if you select Roll of Honor you can do a search for Beatrice. She is the second WWI nurse on the Roll of Honor, the first being Beatrice Mary MacDonald who was injured 17 Aug 1917 while serving in Belgium in a British Clearing Station. My focus is on WWI and WWII nurses who received Purple Hearts. The WWI nurses are challenging to find and love that you shared this information!

LindaC Posted July 4, 2022 Share #29 Posted July 4, 2022 Oops, I see you posted a copy of her MSCC but with penned in corrections. Do you have any official documents to verity the date that the MSCC was awarded for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glenoak7 Posted February 7, 2023 Share #31 Posted February 7, 2023 Hello. My grandfather was the brother of Beatrice Hosken. I have just recently started doing family history research and stumbled on this website and the posting by Jim D. I could not believe my eyes when I saw all of the background information about her! Thank you so much for bringing this woman to my attention! An extraordinary story and one I am so proud to be able to share with my family!
