Broadside. Linen-backed. Large illustration of a woman in a blue WAC uniform carrying a surgical tray. Poster: 37-3/4" x 25-1/4". Backing: 39-1/2" x 27-1/4" Although the U.S. Army Medical Department was one of the slowest to integrate women when over 5000 of its combat-ready men -- including many trained technicians and orderlies -- were forced to transfer to the Infantry in early 1944 the department began a major push to recruit women to fill the positions. The Female Medical Technician campaign as pictured here was hugely successful despite the high qualifications demanded of applicants many of whom were required to have advanced degrees and at least two years of experience in their fields. WACs also served as laboratory technicians psychiatric social workers medical stenographers and in a variety of other technical and/or skilled medical positions; by the end of the war the Medical Department employed approximately 20000 WACs nearly a fifth of the Corps. Treadwell United States Armies in WWII. Special Studies: The Women's Army Corps The poster reads in full: "Women . . . our wounded need your care! You can help to give it . . .
