TNA adds WW1 nursing service records

This announcement is from TNA:
This morning we have published more than 15,000 First World War nursing service records online, providing a glimpse into the life stories of the heroic women who dedicated their lives to their profession. The records date from 1902 to 1922 and hold an unusually high level of detail, rarely seen in service records. Search the records now.
Can be searched by first and last name. A test search failed to find someone I thought had been a WW1 era nurse. Others of the same last name showed free files of more than 50 pages downloadable through DocumentsOnline.

Another nice TNA resource.

Before the month ends, I would like to give the necessary commendation to the women who worked and fight before. They deserve more than anything else but the recognition.
