Your Country Needs You by Thelma M. Robinson Pdf

Responding to the call Your Country Needs You, cadet nurses became the largest and youngest group of uniformed women to serve their country in uniform during World War II. The Corps program was established primarily to expand the quantity of nursing service personnel during a critical nurse shortage. Thanks to federal funding, nursing leaders took advantage of the opportunity to improve nursing education. Wearing the scarlet and grey uniform also gave cadets the confidence to speak out regarding an authoritative nurse training system prevalent in the 1940’s. This book gives a better understanding as to the advances made in nursing education during the past half century.

Oral History, Community, and Work in the American West by Jessie L. Embry Pdf

Nurses, show girls, housewives, farm workers, casino managers, and government inspectors—together these hard-working members of society contributed to the development of towns across the West. The essays in this volume show how oral history increases understanding of work and community in the twentieth century American West. In many cases occupations brought people together in myriad ways. The Latino workers who picked lemons together in Southern California report that it was baseball and Cinco de Mayo Queen contests that united them. Mormons in Fort Collins, Colorado, say that building a church together bonded them together. In separate essays, African Americans and women describe how they fostered a sense of community in Las Vegas. Native Americans detail the “Indian economy” in Northern California. As these essays demonstrate, the history of the American West is the story of small towns and big cities, places both isolated and heavily populated. It includes groups whose history has often been neglected. Sometimes, western history has mirrored the history of the nation; at other times, it has diverged in unique ways. Oral history adds a dimension that has often been missing in writing a comprehensive history of the West. Here an array of oral historians—including folklorists, librarians, and public historians—record what they have learned from people who have, in their own ways, made history.
