As we commemorate 251 years of women’s service to our Nation through our Women of Valor initiative, we honor the remarkable women of the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps, women who answered the call when America needed them most.

During World War II, a critical nursing shortage threatened both military and civilian healthcare. In response, Congress established the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps in 1943, creating one of the most successful wartime recruitment programs in American history.

More than 124,000 women enrolled, trained, and graduated as nurses, serving in military, federal, and civilian hospitals across the country. While nurses deployed overseas to support the war effort, Cadet Nurses ensured that communities at home continued to receive essential medical care. Their skill, dedication, and sacrifice helped sustain a Nation at war.

Their service was indispensable. Their impact was profound. Their legacy continues to inspire.

As we celebrate America’s 250th anniversary, we remember these women of valor whose commitment to service strengthened our Nation during one of its most challenging chapters.

Do you know a woman who served in the U.S. Cadet Nurse Corps? Help preserve her story by registering her in the Military Women’s Memorial Register, the nation’s largest database dedicated to the stories of women who served in and with the U.S. Armed Forces.

The VFW convention proved to be an outstanding event, featuring a commendable turnout from our members, including President Rosa, first-time attendees Kim, Mark, and Linda. They enjoyed interacting with other members from our district and the state during the Patriotic Parade, Joint Memorial Service, and other activities. Our auxiliary's achievement of the Circle of Excellence award and President Rosa's recognition as Recruiter of the Year were highlights. Elections for the 2026-2027 term were successfully held, followed by the installation ceremony. We thank President Diane Ahrens and her team for their tireless efforts.
