"Song of the Army Nurse Corps"

Dublin Core

Title

"Song of the Army Nurse Corps"

Subject

MP3 Recording of the instrumental background to the official anthem of the ANC

Description

This recording shows the upbeat spirit evident in the music of the Army Nurse Corps, but also of the other branches of military service women. These songs were meant to inspire loyalty, patriotism, and courage in the women marching to its beat as well as the civilians hearing the song and thinking of the nurses saving the lives of their family members fighting, and the soldiers fighting on the front. See the words to this music that nurses would have sang along to in the item entitled "With Faith Undaunted," also in this collection set.
