24th_infantry Posted March 20, 2020 #1 Posted March 20, 2020 I ended up buying a bunch of uniforms from a museum that recently closed. This grouping is from an army nurse. The first uniform is the early war blue uniform. The other is a complete nurse dress uniform but it is a British female jacket and skirt. The ribbon bar is also British made. Both uniforms are in mint condition and named. Hopefully I can do some research on her and find some information. I picked up a bunch more female uniforms but I thought these were the most impressive.

sundance Posted March 20, 2020 #3 Posted March 20, 2020 Great Items. I'd love to find women's uniforms but I just don't see them. I grabbed a nurse's trunk back aways and was able to find out info about her which was very interesting. She was from my western NY area and had passed away recently.
Brian Keith Posted March 21, 2020 #5 Posted March 21, 2020 Very nice! Love the Brit made uniform!Thanks for posting, BKW

29navy Posted March 22, 2020 #9 Posted March 22, 2020 Believe she was from Meridian Connecticut: From the Hartford Currant - Dec 26, 1944
24th_infantry Posted March 22, 2020 Author #10 Posted March 22, 2020 That's her! I have a Fort Devens paper for a ceremony for the women on the base. Thanks for that information! If you happen to find anything else I'd love to know. Thanks again 29navy!
