Women Veterans WW2 - Elizabeth McCann

The following information and photograph were from a wall display presentation in Egg Harbor City, NJ, in honor of the women who served in the Armed Forces of the United States. The museum presentation was prepared for Memorial Day 2001, and remained until the end of the year. The photos were mounted on red construction paper and the narrative placed on white paper stars. Both were mounted on a blue background. Elizabeth McCann (U. S. Army Nurse Corps) was stationed in England where she met her future husband. He had been in the Army in Africa and she cared for him while he recovered in the hospital where she was stationed. She stayed in the Army, rising to the rank of major, then traveled all over the country and retired to live in Texas
