Today we pause to remember the courage, care and sacrifice of Australian nurses who have served in times of war and peace.
This Remembrance Day, our post features images from the Australian War Memorial photo archives, highlighting individual nurses of the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps and the years they served. Behind every name and every photograph is a story of skill, compassion and quiet bravery.
Formed in February 1951 from the Royal Australian Army Nursing Service and the Australian Army Medical Women’s Service, the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps has carried this legacy for 75 years.
We remember them, we honour them, and we say with gratitude:
Lest we forget.
