The week of May 6, 2019, was National Nurses Week, and “Nurses are Superheroes” is the theme of the 2019 Military Health System Nurses Week. The American Red Cross hosted the Military Health Systems annual National Nurses Week Wreath Laying Ceremony at their headquarters in Washington, DC. Army, Air Force, and Navy nurses joined in the tribute to the nurses who have offered comfort and help for more than 150 years, in war and peace, for servicemembers and civilians. Maj Gen. Barbara Holcomb, Commanding General of the US Army Medical Research and Materiel Command and Fort Detrick, and Chief of the Army Nurse Corps, said, “Today’s wreath laying is an opportunity to honor nurses who paved the way for our present generation of nurses” and “nurses continue to play an integral role in the success of our Military Health System.” “Thank you for being a part of the profession of nursing. Thank for your dedication, service, compassion, and selfless service to the nation,” said Holcomb. Dedication, service, compassion, and selfless service are all in a regular workday for our nurse superheroes.
