BOOK REVIEWS

World War One NZANS
(S McNabb Collection)

Website updated April 2022

Important update - WW2 nurse portraits are now being posted in
Photo Gallery.

This web site has been established to recognise the nurses of our military force, past and present. The project on this website for 2015 onwards is to establish a gallery of identified photographs of New Zealand nurses who served during WW1 onwards. As photographs are made available the site will be updated beginning with WW1 nurses.

The information offered on this site was gleaned from photographs, official records, letters, diaries and personal mementos. I welcome any additional materials that may increase the history of military nursing in New Zealand, and ask you to contact me if you have anything at all to share. As research is ongoing this website will be updated regularly.

If you require a nurse to be researched please email your request to info.nzans@xtra.co.nz.

Please feel free to send me your comments and enquiries as well as any materials concerning New Zealand military nurses.
