My aunt Annie was in the CBI theatre of operation stationed in India during WW2. She was attached to the AAF and did clerical work. I have her uniforms since I'm "THAT GUY" in our family who collects such things. They were given to me by my cousin who knew I would take care of them. I have all her photos from those times in Karachi. Her is a pic of her and also her uniforms. Eventually I'll get some mannequins and display her uniform and also my uncle the B17 gunner

There are probably still a few "vintage WW2" nurses still very lively and with incredible stories to tell.
See if there is an "association" somewhere near you.

At last! I´ve always wondered why so little interest is shown in the great variety of military nurses´ uniforms. At the time, I experienced awe, fear and respect for the Queen Alexandra's Royal Army Nursing Corps Matron on the ward that I was in (... and left as soon as was decently possible!). How long must she have taken to appear in all her starched glory? Has any of this survived?
