Mr.Jerry Posted July 11, 2021 Share #1 Posted July 11, 2021 This was a pretty good week for me as a collector of woman's military items. First up, I got in the shop a named Army Nurse footlocker grouping from a woman that served in WWII with the 20th general hospital, and stayed in into the 1950's. several uniforms, dresses, nurse outfits, and even her shoes. Then I was contacted by the family of a US Navy aviator that flew helicopters - I was able to acquire her flight helmet and I am waiting on some photos and possible some other items from the family- as sadly she had passed. Lastly I found a really neat Vietnam era Army Nurse corps table top cutout that had a Army nurse in Jungle boots and bush hat. Strong and Brave women all!

doyler Posted July 11, 2021 Share #4 Posted July 11, 2021 I recall seeing cut outs used in the recruiting offices and placed in the area libraries as a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themick Posted July 11, 2021 Share #5 Posted July 11, 2021 Hey Mr. Jerry. That woman's CBI uniform is killer. Congrats on scoring it. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwb123 Posted September 5, 2021 Share #6 Posted September 5, 2021 I just noticed this thread. That Vietnam era Army Nurse Corps cut out is a hoot and a holler. Part of the campaigns that put a smiley face on all the recruiting photos, even while the war was still going on. That is quite the period piece. I am surprised they allowed the photo with the boonie hat, as the baseball cap was the standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
