On 9 August 1955, President Eisenhower signed into law, H.R. 2559, which authorized reserve commissions in the Army Nurse Corps for male RNs. Eleven years later, 30 SEP 1966, Public Law 89-609 authorized regular commissions for male RNs into the Army Nurse Corps.

Both dates are very important to me since I was first reserve commission ANC officer in 2003, then this past March accepted regular commission into the ANC.



HOOAH!

That was interesting history for male nurses. I became a nurse in 1983 and have seen so many changes in regard to men choosing nursing as a career. It seems that now as our female counter parts "have history with Nightingale" We too are developing out Legacy to this profession
