History and Heritage of British Army Nurses
This is a wiki for the history and heritage of the Queen Alexandra’s Royal Army Nursing Corps and its antecedents (Army Nursing Service; Princess Christian’s Army Nursing Service (Reserve); Queen Alexandra’s Imperial Military Nursing Service and its Reserve, Territorial Force Nursing Service, Territorial Army Nursing Service), collectively British Army nurses.
Much of the information in the wiki was based on my prosopography of nurses in the Boer War. This was expanded to include nurses who may have been Army nurses before the Boer War, and also the impact of Boer War veterans on nursing in WW1. Over time it has become a general repository for information about British Army Nurses.
