BAMC received an A from Leapfrog!

The Leapfrog Group is a national, independent organization focused on health care quality.

12/07/2025

On 7 December 1941, 1st Lieutenant Annie G. Fox (Army Nurse Corps) was stationed in Hawaii as Head Nurse at the 30-bed hospital on Hickam Field. At 7:55 a.m., the attack that would bring the United States into World War II suddenly began.

As the casualties soon began pouring into the hospital, 1LT Fox Lt. Fox rallied the nurses and organized the efforts of many volunteers. The wives of officers and NCOs reported to the hospital to help, and Lt. Fox organized the civilian volunteers to make hospital dressings by the hundreds and assist with patient care. 1LT Fox herself participated in surgery, administering anesthesia, during the heaviest part of the bombardment. Afterwards, she, with the other nurses, tended to the wounded.

In recognition of her efforts, 1LT Fox was awarded the Purple Heart medal. Her citation read in part: “During the attack, Lieutenant Fox in an exemplary manner, performed her duties as head nurse of the Station Hospital… [She] worked ceaselessly with coolness and efficiency and her fine example of calmness, courage, and leadership was of great benefit to the morale of all with whom she came in contact.”

Four other Army nurses were honored for their bravery and performance that day and were awarded the Legion of Merit “for extraordinary fidelity and essential service.” They were:
• Capt. Helena Clearwater
• 1st Lt. Elizabeth A. Pesut
• 2nd Lt. nd Lieutenant Elma L. Asson
• 2nd Lt. Rosalie L. Swenson

On this day of remembrance, let us honor all the brave Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines who fought bravely on that fateful day in Pearl Harbor.
