'In the Service of Mankind' is the mottos of the Royal Australian Army Nursing Corps, and has stuck to that ideal for seventy years. The corps was born just after Federation, though Australian nurses had already served in the Boer War. Since then, whenever Australia has fought, the nurses have been there to treat the wounded. The Australian Army Nursing Service Reserve, the original title of the Corps, got underway in 1902 as a voluntary body supplying trained nurses in times of emergency. Since 1949 the corps has been part of the regular army.A photocopy and the original newspaper clipping that includes a title, captions, three columns of text and four black and white photos.
